[quote=Anonymous]Only one person so far said "demographics"? The answer is that white people pay more to live near other white people. Takoma Park has many more black people than Bethesda or Chevy Chase, so people don't pay as much to live there. The real estate market in this area (and maybe everywhere) reflects people's racial judgements. TP 49% white, 35% black; Bethesda 83% white, 3% black. It's awful but it appears to be reality.[/quote]
