[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Real talk — why is NOVA more white / asian / middle eastern, and Maryland is more black / latino / Jewish? I’m a DC area native and admittedly don’t understand the dynamics behind this, but maybe it’s just ignorance due to my age or family history or whatever. Whats the deal here? It’s definitely noticeable. Growing up for instance, I went to private school in Upper NW. Literally all of the black kids lived in Silver Spring, Bowie, and a few others. Every single Jewish kid lived in MoCo — their families would never live in NoVa not a single one of them. As for the white kids the majority lived in NoVa (McLean, Alexandria, Arlington), but some lived in Chevy Chase village. Asians and middle eastern kids all lived in NoVa. Can anyone explain?[/quote] Bethesda/Potomac is becoming more East Asian and some South Asians (non Muslims) I’m noticing [/quote]
