News Flash: Omaha is not unique in this regard.
Check out Chicago's map! Holy |expletive|.
Not to take into account economic/class issues, many ethnic groups prefer to live in close proximity to others like themselves - across the board. This is more a cultural issue than a race issue, as I believe there are people of all races that appreciate diversity and would prefer to live in a diverse neighborhood.

Another thing about Chicago is that there are neighborhoods for nationalities as well, like a Polish Town, a Dutch Town, a German Town etc.

Not surprising, but interesting.
Also, I kinda found it funny how there were dots in the middle of Zorinsky Lake.

It's interesting how black Omahans stay in the north... all the way out west. Notice the large concentration around I-680 as well... sort of leap frogging the Keystone area.
Shoot for the Moon... if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
