For ethnic neighborhoods, look in the yellow pages and see where the ethnic grocery stores are located and drive around and see what sort of signs are in the business windows.If you want a luxury house, check out the places that are high rent.

What their preference could be and I mean, social status, ethnic background, etc.

That's one of those 'cultural norms' that can extend to geographical locations AND ethnic groups.@ Todd.

Charlene, not sure why your ethnicity got into this.But I got a property today that had more equity than it should have.

I'd say, if you are motivated, eager and smart, you should be welcome regardless of your social background, ethnicity, or level of education.

And I think this holds for modest priced neighborhoods (lots of multigenerational ethnic families) as well as higher end neighborhoods (where will they put the au pair?)

I'm using Suburban Jungle - you should check them out, their goal is to get you to find the town you love FIRST, then look for the house.Side note: A lot of upstate towns are beautiful, but I don't consider them particularly "diverse" - this may not be politically correct, but not all POCs are the same and shouldn't always be bucketed together - not sure your ethnicity so it depends on if you're looking for more of 'your' ethnic group or just any other POCs in general... 

West Orange is rather diverse in economics and ethnicities, a large town in square mileage.

Screen your tenants initially, you can’t discriminate to a tenant due to race, creed or ethnicity, but there’s plenty of different ways you can ween out the weak. 

I attended high school in postwar Vietnam but the school, for ethnic Chinese, was not officially recognized by the Vietnamese government.I am fluent in Chinese (the two major dialects, Cantonese and Mandarin) and Vietnamese.
