[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some data from the MCPS schools at a glance website: in 10 years the district has gone from 22% free lunch to 34%. [/quote] Montgomery County has positioned themselves for only the rich who can afford private and don't need county services and the poor. They don't want the "middle" class/income families and are running them out.[/quote] Then they will need to try harder. My household is the median household income in Montgomery County, and we like it here just fine. We're not going anywhere.[/quote] I grew up here and I can't wait to bail. If we could get what we put into our house we'd move to Howard or another county. We can get a bigger house, less traffic, closer to my husband's job and the schools are better.[/quote] In 1980, there were about 580,000 people in Montgomery County, and roughly 83% were white. There are now about a million people, and roughly 58% are white. It's not the same county you grew up in; that's a fact.[/quote]
