Abstract

Ninety-three suburban municipalities in New Jersey with above-average black concentrations or black in-migration are categorized in a sixfold typology based on population density land use characteristics and distance from a central city. The typology includes central-city spill-over dormitory metropolitan rural outer industrial subsidized and mixed use communities. These community types differ in socioeconomic and housing characteristics in the likelihood of black population increase since 1970 and in the relative share of suburban black public-school enrollment increase between 1971 and 1976. The analysis concludes that increasing black suburbanization does not imply a convergence of black and white population distributions. (authors)
