In the traditional European sense of walled districts where Jews were required to reside by law, the answer is no. However, in the looser modern sociological sense of inner city areas urban areas where ethnic minorities tend to live, the answer is of course yes.

The old ghetto in Venice, Italy (dating from about 1550 onwards) is still architecturally intact, though hardly any Jews still live there. It is worth a visit. Ironically, since about 1980 it has become an upscale area!

Are there still Jewish ghettos?

No. Let us note for clarification that a ghetto is not simply a Jewish neighborhood (as Jews might organize for themselves), but a neighborhood where Jews are legally mandated to live by the government authorities and will likely have laws, walls, and curfews designed to keep Jews distinct from the Non-Jewish population.Jews lived in ghettos throughout Europe and the Arab World for centuries prior to World War II. (The ghettoization under the Nazis was unique because it forced Jews that had been emancipated, i.e. let out of the ghettos, to be forced back in.) In Europe, after the Holocaust, it became politically untenable to put Jews into ghettos again. In the Arab World, Jews were in a state of quasi-emancipation, where some were in ghettos and others were not. However, there were mass emigrations of Jews from the Arab World to Israel and other Western countries which effectively emptied the Arab World ghettos since the entire population departed. New World countries (especially the United States) and Israel never had ghettos to start with, so they never had to disappear.


Did the Indians have to live in urban ghettos?

No. In the early years of the nation there were no "urban ghettos". This is a modern term that has developed in the past 70 years since the invention of the car and urban movement from cities. The Native American's wanted to live and stay on native lands. A large percentage were displaced through laws in the 1800's to reservations where they were not treated with respect or honor. Many of the reservations still exist, are considered federal lands, and have tribal members on the reservation. in recent years many of the reservations have built casinos to support members of the tribe. They can do this because they are on federal lands and still have treaties as nations with the government, but none of this led to living in "urban ghettos" for Native American's,
