In the play, we never actually see the characters move into the white neighborhood in which they've purchased a home. From Mr. Linder's offer to buy the home back for more than the Youngers paid, we can infer the people in the neighborhood, represented by the Clybourne Park Improvement Association, don't want the Younger family in their neighborhood. In my opinion, based upon what we already know, the Youngers are going to face a number of challenges.
