I lived in the next county north of Milwaukee. There were close to zero black
people living in my county. I got a very good price when I sold my house because a lot of white people moved out of Milwaukee when they started to bus students to achieve more racial balance in the various Milwaukee schools.

Fun facts: My county split in half in the 1840s. In order to achieve the minimum county size they claimed that the county extended 10-20 miles into Lake Michigan.

Also, Leland Stanford sold out and moved to California because he lost a local election.
