In cities across the U.S., neighborhoods that are poorer and have more residents of color can be 5°F to 20°F hotter in summer than wealthier, whiter parts of the same city.
A growing body of research suggests that’s no coincidence. nyti.ms/3aTnSPY

We built Atlas Obscura on the idea that exploration is for everyone—without prejudice or fear. We support all those standing against the historic inequality and institutionalized racism experienced by the black community. We see you. We hear you. We are with you.
