(b)   Racial minorities, especially African-Americans, made up a
      disproportionate percentage of lower-income households in the City that
      rely on low-income housing. The district court noted that the parties
      agree that African-Americans make up a disproportionate percentage of
      low-income tenants in the City. The City’s 2000 census data showed
      that 11.7% of the City’s population was African-American, whereas data
      from October 2004 showed that 61% and 62% of those on waiting lists
      for public housing and Section 8 assistance, respectively, were African-
      American. Further, the City’s 2000 report to HUD showed that 52% of
      minority-headed renter households were in the bottom bracket for
      household adjusted median family income, compared to 32% of all renter
      households.
