Local racial context is modeled with local percent black as the independent variable.
Local + Neighbor Racial Context is modeled with an independent variable that incorporates local percent black and percent black in surrounding block groups.
ρ = The spatial lag term representing the association of the weighted average of race in neighboring block groups on the outcome.
These Moran’s I statistics are calculated in GeoDa without assessing statistical significance.
