Interesting thread summarising an important study of discrimination in the private rental market in four English towns.

[Gwilym Pryce @GwilymPryce1]

1/ we set out reasons why we might expect discrimination to vary across locations. Eg social frontiers may heighten territorial sentiment. letting agents reflect this in their response rates to particular ethnic groups. We mights also expect asymmetric effects across the frontier
