White people and established African Americans often settled in urban areas, particularly in northern cities during the Great Migration, which saw a significant movement of African Americans seeking better economic opportunities and escaping Jim Crow laws in the South. Neighborhoods such as Harlem in New York became cultural hubs for African Americans, while white populations often established communities nearby, leading to both integration and segregation. This dynamic resulted in diverse urban landscapes marked by cultural exchange as well as racial tensions.
