Housing Segregation Law and Legal Definition
Housing segregation refers to the discriminatory treatment practiced on African American or other minority groups in U.S. It is the practice of denying equal access to housing or available units through the process of misinformation, denial of realty and financing services, and racial steering. Housing segregation thereby does not give the African Americans the right to have many choices about where they are able to live.
