Abstract
Freedom of movement is basic to the achievement of national goals in housing, civil rights, education, and the elimination of poverty. As a goal of urban planning, it implies extending a wide variety of residential choices to all groups. Yet urban development policies in many cities and suburbs tend to restrict residential choices available to the poor and to minorities. These policies result in pan from competition for local tax resources, which reinforces social prejudices. Several approaches are suggested for reorienting local development policies in support of national social objectives.Keywords
