Abstract

"The purpose of this project is to gain a better understanding of how ""racial tipping points"" affect counties in the Chicagoland region. Identifying racial tipping points or even understanding whether racial tipping is relevant to the Chicagoland region might help the Metropolitan Planning Council asses local racial tolerance for a given area so that they can recommend suitable policies to municipalities or localities that appear to have higher or lower tipping thresholds."
