This couldn't be further from the truth and disregards the history of how these areas started. For example, San Francisco's Chinatown:
"This, combined with a number of racist and restrictive laws limiting where Chinese were allowed to live within the city, led to the growth of Chinatown, which today comprises 24 square blocks."
