Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Boston's segregation is so bad, just ugh. There's a note on the map here [link] that marks the city of Lynn, the only diverse place around. When my old job had a team of four girls from there, IIRC, they were each of a different ethnic background. Generally, the teams from various places were all one thing -- all black, all latina, whatever. The Lynn group was one Cambodian, one Hatian, one Latina (I forget from where), one African-American, I think.
On the food thing, when people ask if I have any food issues, I have started saying I eat anything, but I don't like eggplant, just in case! Because I figure, what the hell. No one has yet told me they were planning on serving eggplant....

It would be fascinating to get down to block by block level in those maps. The census data probably allow it - they chunk geographically pretty small. I know that both small southern cities I've lived in, it's micro-patches - still segregated in many ways, but in older urban neighborhoods at least, living really really close.

This town is interesting that way. Because it's a college town, and there's an enormous amount of rental property, in the borough proper it's incredibly mixed.
