Report Says Subprime Mortgage Lenders Target Minorities: A new report accuses subprime mortgage lenders of going out of their way to target poor and minority areas, including some New York City neighborhoods.

The report was released Thursday by a coalition of research organizations focusing on urban areas. It’s worth noting that the study report looks at 2006 and a lot of changes in lending patterns have happened since.
