I remember some years back, on National Public Radio the host, I think, was talking about himself and a co-worker, an African American. Same education, same jobs, same income. But, they grew in different neighborhoods. Thus, while the white man's parents home significantly increased in value, the same did not hold for the black's one, where the value grew modestly. This was before the Great Recession.
