        In support of the district court’s standard, Appellees cite Andrews v. City of
New York, No. CV-01-7333, 2004 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 30290 (E.D.N.Y.) and Brown
v. Omaha Housing Authority., No. 8:05CV423, 2007 WL 2123750 (D. Neb. July 20,
2007). Neither of those cases, however, specifies what method of proof is required
for a disparate impact claim. At most, Andrews and Brown support the conclusion
that statistics are useful to demonstrate a disparate impact. See also Tsombanidis, 352
F.3d at 575–76 (statistical evidence is “normally used in cases involving fair housing
disparate impact claims”).
