Notes: Columns 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a report βj’s from a collapsed version of equation (1), with 9 race x education categories. Columns 1b, 2b, 3b and 4b report the predicted probabilities a migrant in the relevant subsample of the low-income neighborhood sample locates in a gentrifying neighborhood. Column 1 uses the same sample of migrants to low-income neighborhoods used in column 1 of Table 4. Column 2 uses only those migrants in the low-income neighborhood sample who moved into their current house in the year prior to the census. Columns 3 and 4 stratify the low-income neighborhood sample into tracts that were at least 50% black in 1990 and those that were not.
