Brooklyn's Income Inequality: Global Causes, Local Effects | BkBureau.org
Great piece on race and economic inequality and the global economy in brooklyn. One incredible example: "In census tract 21, which includes DUMBO, the median household income was $149,000, although for whites, who represent 80 percent of the population, the median household income was significantly higher at $163,000. For blacks the median household income in that area was $23,000."
