Preferred term

inner city  

Definition(s)

  • Social problems related to industrialization, immigration, criminality, and poverty were initially perceived as problems of the city in its entirety and were later associated more with the inner city. With the rapid post-World War II expansion of a distinctive suburban realm, the concept of “inner city” achieved wide currency. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Problems; Inner City]
