  • FRATERNITY ROW, the STUDENT GHETTO, and the FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town
    10.1177/0096144205281664 JOURNAL OF URBAN HISTORY / January 2006 ARTICLE Gumprecht / RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS IN COLLEGE TOWNS FRATERNITY ROW, THE STUDENT GHETTO, AND THE FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town BLAKE GUMPRECHT University of New Hampshire The unusual demographic characteristics of college towns, and the social differences that exist within stu- dent populations, have led to the emergence in college communities of several distinctive types of residential districts. Using Ithaca, New York,as an example, this study examines the origins and evolution of three such districts—the Greek-housing district sometimes called “fraternity row,” the student rental area often known as the student ghetto, and the faculty enclave. Together such districts help to make the American college town a unique type of urban place. Keywords: college towns; neighborhoods; housing; residential segregation The hundreds of college towns in the United States are, in essence, an aca- demic archipelago.1 Similar to one another, they often differ in several impor- tant ways from other cities and the regions in which they are located. The most fundamental difference is demographic and is a reflection of the fact that many college towns are single-industry communities whose main business is educa- tion. The annual migration of new students to campuses means college town populations are forever young. The need for faculty and administrators, and the presence of graduate students, mean that college town populations are more highly educated than the general populace.2 The lopsided demographics of college communities help explain their dis- tinctive personalities. College town commercial areas reflect the ever-chang- ing tastes of youth and the nonmainstream orientation of many professors.
