Reply to comment by worm_odyssey in Opinions on Niche's Baltimore Neighborhood ratings? Any neighborhoods you strongly disagree with the ratings on? by AyyScare

Buy or pick up "The Black Butterfly" by Dr. Lawrence Brown.

Long story short, redlining and racism.

If you want a real deep dive, I highly recommend Not in My Neighborhood (Baltimore specific) and The Color of Law (broadly about the US history of racial covenants and residential segregation)
