Sociologists argue that poverty and disadvantage are compounded when poor people are drawn together, and that alternatively , the well to do, are unfairly helped when they are surrounded by other rich people.
This kind of thinking leads Government to direct Social Housing to more well to do neighbourhoods. It also increases the cost of Social Houses, while decreasing the incentive to be self sufficient, and to self provide housing, since a home is provided by the State in a more gentrified neighbourhood.
More wealthy area,s are often less well policed, and the people tend to be less streetwise, creating opportunities for Urchins, to behave like Urchins. Poorer Children are also much more aware of their poverty when surrounded by people who have more, creating and maximising feelings of inequality.
The incentive effect for betterment is maximised by directing Social Housing to Ghetto Style Developments, while allowing many more housing units to be provided, in more traditional social housing areas.
While there is a discrepancy between the participation rates in University between Concentrated Social Housing areas, and areas which are more middle class, this is perfectly rational, having regard to inherited genetic ability.
It must be remembered that poor people do not love their children any less than wealthy people.
Evidence suggests that poor boys in particular do not do well in mixed housing areas. Duke University poverty study: When rich and poor live side-by-side, poor boys suffer most.
