<p>This week, Meg and Alex share an excerpt from the book Bad Neighborhoods. If you like the 53206 Cast, Bad Neighborhoods is similar in concept, but is more of a deep dive into the issues facing areas of concentrated poverty. The audio version of the book can be found on the Bad Neighborhoods podcast feed or by using this link:</p> <p>https://open.spotify.com/show/2U5tj17PnVr8uV52pDsDjB</p>

53206, located in the inner city of Milwaukee, is the poorest zip code in the state of Wisconsin. 99.2% of residents are non-white and the median household income is $24,000. Meg and Alex talk about what they have learned over the last 15 years from living in a place that is very different than the suburbs they grew up in. Each episode typically covers thoughts on education, social justice, and the normalization of inequities they see on a daily basis.
