Air pollutionUniversity at Buffalo
•83% Informative
University at Buffalo researchers looked at 17 cities across New York State where longstanding federal housing policies once denied neighborhoods with people of color from receiving mortgages.
Elevated levels of air pollutants in these neighborhoods disproportionately linked to increased ER visits for mental disorders.
Redlining came about from New Deal-era government-insured mortgages.
Research has found that D-rated neighborhoods to this day have worse air quality.
