How is spatial mobility a barrier to social mobility?

In: Sociology, Discrimination [Edit categories]

Answer:

Spatial mobility is the rate of moves or migrations made by a given population within a given time frame. Spatial mobility can be a barrier to social mobility because spatial mobility segregates and divides races of humans into segments causing division. Division among people in our social society causes segregation, therefore, spatial mobility is a barrier to social mobility.
