    The move to another neighborhood is rooted in the previous federal policies of the FHA which prohibited negroes from living in certain areas and also caused insurance rates to alter. This policy was known as red-lining. With regard to bringing their neighborhoods with them this is a constant of all communites, if you visit the isreali towns in palestine the towns reflect european culture, not semitic culture. Similiarly when whites move to other areas they maintain the values of the culture of their origin. Being more specific about walking in front of cars, there is a cultural belief that walkers have rights and a sense of community safety that says courtesy toward walkers is a norm. Whites have developed a culture of the driver is king and hence it is irritating to them when the driver is delayed. When visiting other nations you may find the same attitudes, in some the car is king of the road while in others the walker is king. It depends upon the cultural experience of the people whether they feel it is challenging or neighborliness.
