This paper addresses the issue of whether whites' utilization of alternate forms of schooling is racially motivated. More specifically, an effort is made to determine whether residence in census tract units of varying racial composition influences white outmigration and utilization of nonpublic schools. Results are reported and summarized for sixty-three public school districts serving central cities. It is found that residential populations living within individual school districts differ with respect to the extent of racial selection in residential relocation and nonpublic school utilization, according to region, percentage of public school pupils black, type of district, and implementation of school desegregation programs
