Title
Excerpts from the 1960 Census of Ann Arbor
Description
These two sheets of data were compiled during the 1960 Census and reflect population statistics for the city of Ann Arbor and the greater Washtenaw County. While Census data often fails Black and Brown people, it is critical to note how almost 40% of the recorded Black population of Ann Arbor was noted to live within Census Tract WA-0007, which roughly corresponds to the North Central and Northeastern areas of the city. Moreover, much can be gleaned from looking at the non-white populations and class dynamics of surrounding tracts to understand the shape of segregation in the city and county.
