And according to Tran, the division can have far reaching impacts on communities of color, creating lasting disadvantage in a number of areas.
“We know that in these outer parts of the region, there is less access to jobs, to services to quality housing and good schools,” she said.

“They can look at this data to see which exclusionary neighborhoods, they can add affordable housing to increase accessibility to these places,” Tran said.
