[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is funny how many of you think there is white flight going on in the burbs because you see brown people. White people are not flying away. Immigrants, especially asians are moving up the socioeconomic ladder (in Loudoun county they are the highest wage earners of all races) brown people like myself want good schools and dont want our kids exposed to the underbelly of America which is just like the 3rd woeld, but with more violence and more drugs. Brown people like me go to where the best opportunity for our kids are. You Americans just see brown people and sit in your city and say "see I told you so, the whites are fleeing and the browns are taking over". You are just ignorant. I don't want to live in DC or Arlington and send my kids to your sh!t schools or fork over 40k/yr per kid for a private school when I can just live somewhere with great public schools, surrounded by families with the same values. My parents didnt come here doe me to squander opportunity for myself and future generations. Nor for me to treat my kids like a grand social experiment and send them to a mixed SES school and hope att the major social problems our country has dont influence my kids.[/quote] This totally. I'm a brown person living in the faraway burbs of Clarksburg, MD, one reason being the schools. I hate to say it though but I do think white people, whether subconsciously or not, do tend to avoid neighborhoods that have a large number of brown people. So though they may not be moving out.. they aren't moving in.[/quote]
