The collective muscle that created has helped the community thrive in an area that a U.S. government-sponsored agency in the 1930s subjected to racist redlining.— when two census tracts with public housing and new luxury apartments are excluded.
Redlining that declared the area less desirable actually made it easier for Latinos, Blacks and Mexican immigrants to buy houses in West Dallas. It was one of few options.
