种族、阶级和居住隔离对住房价值的影响仍然是社会学研究的一个主要焦点。然而，还没有一项研究将这些因素放在2008年和2009年大衰退的背景下。因此，这项工作的目的是评估大衰退在多大程度上影响了非洲裔美国人和白人的住房价值相对于种族，阶级和居住隔离的联合影响。本研究主要探讨以下问题：（1）种族隔离与社会经济地位（SES）如何影响居住价值的种族差异？(2)在大衰退之前、期间和之后，住房价值的种族差异程度如何？（3）与地位较低的非裔美国人相比，地位较高的非裔美国人的住房价值是否没有受到种族隔离和大衰退的负面影响？使用综合公共使用微观数据系列，2010年大都市区差异和人口密度得分，以及分层线性模型，研究结果显示，大衰退加剧了住房价值的种族差异，最主要的是在较高的SES类别。在住房价值方面，与类似的白人相比，地位较低的非裔美国人相对于同等白人处于更不利的地位。文章最后讨论了调查结果的影响。
The effects of race, class, and residential segregation on housing values continue to be a major focus of sociological research. Nevertheless, there has yet to be a study that places these factors in the context of the great recession of 2008 and 2009. Accordingly, the purpose of this work is to assess the extent to which the great recession affected housing values for African Americans and whites relative to the joint effects of race, class, and residential segregation. The following research questions are addressed: (1) How do segregation and socioeconomic status (SES) affect racial differences in housing values? (2) What were the levels of racial disparity in housing values before, during, and after the great recession? and (3) Were the housing values of higher status African Americans insulated from the negative impact of segregation and the great recession compared with their lower status counterparts? Using the Integrated Public Use Micro-data Series, the 2010 metropolitan area dissimilarity and population density scores, and hierarchical linear modeling, the findings revealed that the great recession exacerbated racial differences in housing values most in the higher SES categories. Higher status African Americans were more disadvantaged relative to comparable whites than lower status African Americans compared with similar whites in terms of housing values. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications of the findings.
