hi! new input on this is welcome; meanwhile, there have been several discussions on American deurbanization, "white flight" in general, and some cities in particular; give these a look for previous responses
Why were the Late 70's/Early 80's a low point for many American cities?
What happened in Detroit that made it what it is today?
What are some pivotal events in the decline of Detroit?

How much was "white flight" influenced by racial violence (riots, terrorist attacks)?
Why did suburbs in America develop differently than those in Europe?
