[quote=Anonymous]A couple of things. First off, we have a huge economic policy industry in DC and many universities - "luxury goods" is the official economic term for anything... uuuhhh... luxury. It automatically distinguishes between different classes of goods in a way that is recognized in both research and practice. That aside, as a frequent traveler and many-time renter, "luxury apartments" and "luxury hotels" are also terms that pretty clearly distinguish between different types of living and vacation situations. You can second guess it and call people snobby or wannabes or whatever, but it's just the basic reality that googling "luxury apartment" in any metropolitan area is an excellent way to filter out trash and bias towards actual decent places to live. It doesn't actual mean you think you're living a luxurious lifestyle. Personally, it's how I auto-filter out the "fairfield inn" and "springhill suites" of the world when I travel.[/quote]
