Very interesting video on the subject, with a case study of a neighborhood that went from 92.2% White and 2.2% Black to 33.2% White and 58.8% Black in the course of a decade.
The first wave of Black residents tried to assimilate into the White culture, but the second wave didn't; and as the neighborhood started to decline the Whites and Jews fled. Which just increased the number homes for sale and the number of Black residents buying into the neighborhood and making the situation worse.

Yup, "White flight" is really just a natural reaction to the fact that wherever blacks go, crime follows.
