You don't fix the "lower income" part of lower income neighborhoods by demolishing the buildings and forcibly relocating the people to more expensive housing. You are just rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic and even making things worse by increasing poverty-stricken peoples housing and transportation expenses.
My personal approach would be to either build affordable housing in majority white neighborhoods or force the sale of homes at below market prices to immigrant families. And it would be more like zip code to zip code, not city to city, so that people aren't isolated from each other, just more evenly distributed demographically.
In lots of cities you have these hard lines that delineate good and bad neighborhoods. Instead of one white neighborhood in one non-white neighborhood right next to each other, it should be two mixed neighborhoods with no real border between them.
Denmark is a little country with short distances so everyone goes to the same hospitals. School districts are small enough to have noticeable social differences but they are small compared to what you see in other places in the world.
However going to the same place doesn't mean you're treated the same. In the same public school you find kids who comes from families that can afford to spend thousands of dollars on a school trip to New York and kids who comes from families that can't. In the same retirement home you find seniors who can afford to pay for extra cleaning and personal hygiene, and you find seniors who can't.
Yeah, something like that. There is an increasing tendency though of more well-off families sending their kids to private schools so maybe at some time in the future public schools will become poor schools for poor kids.

Hmm, I see. Well at least poor danish kids don't have to worry about the school ceiling crumble on them, else the rich kids' parents would complain.
