Maps show racial breakdown of American cities

[glatt]

The island of red in the area of blue in the DC map is Capitol Hill, where it's kind of expensive and became trendy about two decades ago. So that's why the whites live there.

I looked at NYC. I don't really know NYC. There's a similar area in Kings where a small enclave of whites lives in a sea of blacks. I can't figure out what it is. It seems to be centered at the intersection of Nostrand Ave and Empire Blvd, which looks like every other neighborhood in Kings.
