Best Answer

There were many effects of White Flight on American cities. One was that the racial composition of a neighborhood's population changed when the white people moved to the suburbs.

Another was that the city's tax base was drained when the middle class left. This caused urban decay and the cities fell into disrepair and decrepitude. Other signs of urban decay are unemployment, poverty, fragmented families, and crime.

One effect of White Flight on American cities was a decrease in the tax base, as affluent white residents moved to the suburbs, leaving behind poorer communities with less resources and funding. This perpetuated segregation and economic disparities within urban centers.
