		The rest of Minneapolis and the Metropolitan Area do not consider these things to be a "Social Problem" or even anomalies because that is where such things are supposed to happen and is normal in their minds.

	[Mpls] Minneapolis Continues Pattern of Discrimination Against Poor Commu...
		There was in fact a strictly enforced code that kept fl families out of a majority of the neighborhoods in Minneapolis during the first half of the 20th century, and prosperous fls were generally not exempt.
		Neighborhood Associations were set up to enforce restrictive covenants which prohibited the purchase or lease of property by fls within defined neighborhoods.
		It was undoubtedly the large-scale migration of fls from the Deep South to northern cities during WWII and their enrollment in racially integrated CIO-affiliated unions that prodded Congress to pass fair housing and employment laws in the 1940s and helped to pave the way for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 60s.

	Resource: Center for Neighborhoods
		Originally known as the Minneapolis Center for Neighborhoods, the Center was formed in 1994 to find ways to strengthen neighborhoods, to help them develop a more effective voice and to facilitate cooperation among neighborhoods and city and regional policymakers.
		As a result, two of the biggest ongoing challenges that face neighborhood groups are inclusiveness — the active work of ensuring that all residents have a voice — and the need to look beyond solutions that are based solely on a common local geography.
		Because neighborhood organizations are looked to by both citizens and government to provide a vehicle for civic participation, it is essential that they have the capacity and expertise to fulfill this role effectively.

	MARC
		Orfield, 39, who grew up in Minneapolis and now represents it in the state legislature, has launched an ambitious political initiative to slow suburban sprawl and the accompanying flow of wealth from older neighborhoods into booming new communities on the fringes of the Twin Cities metropolitan area.
		The chief goal of this program is encouraging middle-class people and thriving businesses to stay --or move back--into city neighborhoods and older suburbs by removing barriers that stand in the way of community revival: poor public services, a low tax base, and the web of social problems that arise in pockets of concentrated poverty.
		In Minneapolis and St. Paul you can see that inner city neighborhoods and hard-hit blue-collar suburbs don't show the same signs of economic freefall as their counterparts across the country.
