In 2006, socially excluded localities in the Czech Republic were inhabited by 60-80,000 people, but presently there are 95-115,000 people living in these communities. Ghettos have appeared in all regions. The economic crisis made the situation worse, but even more significant is the fact that a new generation of people has no chance to break out of the poor neighborhoods of their childhood.
