Eh, immigrant Asians are pretty racist about this stuff. I had a friend who wanted to buy a condo in Shaw, his older Chinese immigrant parents were gifting him the $100K downpayment (he's an only child, a total Chinese "princeling"). Parents refused to give him the money unless he bought in Dupont or Georgetown, citing that they thought "those people" in Shaw would bring down property values.

His parents are stupid rich, live in a gorgeous part of Southern California.[/quote]

Well they aren't stupid. good advice.[/quote]

X2 there is a reason shaw cost less and isn't as stable as the other two. There are still huge pockets of poverty there and that holds down values [/quote]

Property values are skyrocketing in Shaw and there are bidding wars for any and everything. Meanwhile condos in Georgetown are lingering on the market. But you know, whatever, black people = bad.[/quote]
