Legacy effects of redlining on the distribution of greenspaces in US cities
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.We investigated how a discriminatory housing policy—redlining—has shaped the spatial patterns and configurations of greenspaces throughout 177 cities in the contiguous US. Housing segregation has been a long‐term development practice that has sequestered communities of color to areas with elevated environmental and public health risks.
