tballardbrown: Via Michael J. Petrilli at the Fordham Institute’s Flypaper education blog comes a list of the 25 U.S. Zip codes which saw the greatest gain in white population share from 2000 to 2010. In the absence of 2010 economic data, which is yet to be released, Petrilli uses the relative change in white population to gauge the impact of gentrification. Three of the top 25 are in D.C. — only Brooklyn, N.Y., with four zips, is more represented on the list.  (via D.C. has three of America’s most-whitened zip codes - District of DeBonis - The Washington Post) Photo: Jeffrey Porter - For The Washington Post Gentrification.
