[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP have you seen the real estate forum? People look for school districts with the least numbers of Hispanics and AAs.[/quote]

Yep...including people of color.

Many upwardly mobile blacks and Latinos want their kids to go to less diverse schools (as opposed to schools where minorities are the majority).

Why?

Class. Socioeconomics.

[b]Nobody wants their kids surrounded by kids who aren’t planning to go to college.[/b]

Diverse communities like MoCo don’t really have white flight anymore. Look at the demographics. Instead, you see families of all races and ethnicities scrambling to move west where zoning laws prevented the development of rentals or affordable housing.

I’m convinced socioeconomics trumps race, yet we never talk about it. Perhaps because the wealthy people running our world don’t want us to get hip to economic inequality and seek to level the field? [/quote]

NP. This is so offensive. I didn’t go to college and I make mid-six figures. Go take your disastrous “Kids are bad if they aren’t go to college” or “College isn’t for everyone-but but that doesn’t apply to my kid” agenda elsewhere.[/quote]
