List of African-American neighborhoods

This is a list of African-American neighborhoods, containing cities, districts, and neighborhoods in the US that are predominantly African American, or are strongly associated with African-American culture, either currently or historically. Included are areas with high concentrations of blacks or African Americans, not counting Afro-Caribbeans, Afro-Latinos, and Sub-Saharan African immigrants.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.

The largest African-American community is Detroit in Michigan[1] About 80% of the city population is African-American. A quarter of Metro Detroit (Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties) are African-American.
