DESCRIPTION:Residential segregation in the United States is persistent\, an
 d even though policymakers tout the benefits of integration\, social and ec
 onomic headwinds limit its progress. These challenges to integration are of
 ten a result of fear of interacting with different racial groups. Using a n
 earest neighbor research design\, we show that receipt of a new Black next-
 door neighbor\, relative to receipt of a new White next-door neighbor\, lea
 ds to an increase in 911 calls auto-dialed by home alarm systems. This effe
 ct exists irrespective of the race of the current resident. We even find ev
 idence that current Black residents are less likely to apply for Concealed 
 Handgun Permits when a new White neighbor moves in next door. However\, we 
 find no change in either crime related calls or reported crimes after the a
 rrival of new Black neighbors. Taken together\, these results suggest the p
 resence of perceived but no actual threat to personal safety from new Black
  neighbors. More broadly\, polices that promote integration may benefit fro
 m initially investing in actions that increase social interactions between 
 different racial groups to counteract perceived threats to personal safety 
 driven by racial stereotypes.
