“…Fowler, 2015) and explored both measures of spatial decomposition for particular indices (Reardon et al, 2000;Voas and Williamson, 2000;Johnston et al, 2003;Fischer et al, 2004;Parisi et al, 2011) and ways of mapping/measuring segregation at different scales Reardon et al, 2008Reardon et al, , 2009Östh et al, 2014;Clark et al, 2015). All have added substantially to our appreciation of segregation patterns -and, in some cases, to the underlying processes -but suffer from two disadvantages.…”

To assess the veracity of those alternative views, a bespoke data set showing percentage support for the Democratic Party's presidential candidates at the County, State and Divisional scales has been analysed using a robust, statistically-based measure of polarisation/segregation. The ecological results provide clear and compelling evidence of a trend towards greater polarisation across the nine Census Divisions, across the 49 States within those Divisions, and across the 3077 Counties within the States -with strong evidence that the differences over time at the last of those scales are highly statistically significant. Within those general trends, polarisation has been greater in some States than others and also within some States more than othersidentifying additional geographies calling for further research.

“…In one of the few attempts addressing urban residential segregation's multi-scalar nature, Fischer et al (2004, 37) sought to distinguish 'whether groups live apart because members cluster into different neighborhoods, communities, metropolitan areas or regions', using a 'traditional' measure (the entropy index: Parisi et al, 2011, also used it in a comparable evaluation of segregation levels at multiple scales). However, this took no account of the internal spatial structuring of the units at each scale and the decomposition approach did not fully respond to Tranmer and Steel's important argument.…”

This map analyzes geographic variation in residential segregation by age in the contiguous United States at Census 2010. We evaluate segregation at the micro-scale between blocks within counties and then examine spatial patterns of segregation by county across the United States using local indicators of spatial autocorrelation. This approach emphasizes local levels of segregation analyzing the extent to which older adults and younger adults reside in the same immediate neighborhood, and it assesses more regional levels of segregation by evaluating spatial clustering. Findings show that the extent of age segregation varies significantly across the contiguous United States. Counties in the Great Plains, in other areas of the Rural West and the Upper Midwest, and in Florida tend to exhibit high segregation, while Appalachia and other areas of the Rural South are generally more integrated.
