[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wealthy families are not moving out, at least in my area. We paid under 200K to get into my neighborhood in the late 90s. You can't get in for less than 500K now. The area used to be for working class families, now it is dual income professionals, many with advanced degrees. I get that this isn't ALL of DCC, but it is certainly some areas. I'm sure some areas have gone downhill, but I'm not sure those are the ones where wealthy families were before. [/quote]

That is such a small percentage of the DCC. Fact is it is mostly poor and minority, the few middle class pockets are the exception not the rule. [/quote]

It’s clear you know nothing about the area and are apparently not able to understand and interpret demographic data. At this point I call troll because no one can be this dense.[/quote]

Who is the dense one when you are in denial and the demographic trends of an area? Which school is majority white? Which school has a shrinking FRAMs rate? Which school doesn’t have a high percentage of the kids which have been on FRAMs at one point or another? The dense part is your denial, but keep on keeping on, fat dumb and happy is the American way[/quote]

Well, at least you own it.  Being majority white != class.  As evidenced by this comment.  Many high schools in the DCC have a variety of families -- some work for state department, IMF, DoJ, NIST, etc -- with PhDs and JDs (even in the same house!) and of all levels of melanin.

It turns out that those who are melanin-challenged don't have a lock down on class.  Why do you equate majority white with better?  I don't.  [/quote]
