[quote=Anonymous]We recently left the DC area. We lived by a cc but didnt join because it didnt really make sense. We had a neighborhood pool and restaurants that we liked, and we tended to golf at the MoCo public courses.

We moved to the south and it's unthinkable not to have a membership at the ones here. But cc culture here in the south is A LOT different. The clubs are in a consortium, so you buy one membership and get access to all of them.  You have to pay extra to add on the "premier" one that is subtantially nicer, and although its literally only like 50 bucks a month to add on, it seems like only the richer people do and the clientele is a lot more upscale than the other ones.

The clubs here seem to go for a younger and more fun-loving crowd. They have things lke gyms with classes, a lounge area with a Top Golf simulator, wine dinners, and an adults only pool with swim-up bar. This is in addition to typical club feature like golf, etc.

There is an add-on where you get access to clubs throughout the world, so you could go on vacation and hit up the cc where you vacation.

I have been shocked at how inexpensive the membership is. We paid under a grand for initiation, and have a social membership with access to the driving range and 10 rounds of golf per year (just pay to play more, with a friend that has a full membership.  We pay about $200 per month for this.

I dont know what the "class" is. This is a rich town and it seems like everyone at the club is comfortable. We dont talk about 401ks and stuff like that, as people here have mentioned. We talk about things like concerts that are upcoming, trips, vacations, a bit about work, and random things like aliens and conspiracy theories. I think people who make under 400 would be able to relate to all that. [/quote]
