Housing discrimination occurs frequently in Seattle, according to test results recently released by the Seattle Office for Civil Rights (SOCR). According to SOCR, more than half of all properties tested showed evidence of illegal housing discrimination.
“These results confirm that housing discrimination is the reality for many people who live in Seattle,” Mayor Mike McGinn said in a statement. “That is simply not acceptable. The actions that we are taking as a response to these results will help us to become a more equitable city.”
