Abstract: One branch of urban economics shows that amenities affect a city's socio-spatial structure, leading to social segregation. Coastal cities comprise a large proportion of the world's population and possess a high level of natural amenities. Therefore, it is important to explore the link between natural coastal amenities and residential segregation. We propose a theoretical model to explain the stylized fact that French coastal towns have American-type social structures. We theoretically explain that there is a small difference in the transport cost ratio between rich and poor house- holds to the CBD and coast
