I think one factor is the amount of diversity and density in an area. Cities like Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, and Philadelphia are less racist but are more paranoid. People profile and stereotype based on appearance, which race can be a part of, but so can hygiene, wardrobe, where you live, and how beat up your car is. People living in areas that are spread out and less diverse tend to get clannish. I believe their judgements are based more on differences and that, having less options, have been forced to work within a particular paradigm that they do not want to see get disrupted. I don’t know. This is a very complex and sensitive issue and I don’t think there’s any way we can completely explain how even one person is affected by their environment and heredity.
