[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you are real, I honestly suggest that you expand your social circles before you draw this kind of conclusion about an entire city.

I'm from the West Coast, but have lived here a loooooong time--and a huge percentage of the people in the neighborhoods and schools you are focusing on are not from here at all, let alone privileged products of the private schools their kids attend. Maybe they moved here for college, to work in government, law, journalism, tech, education, or some other sector where they thought they could make a difference. Is there downside to DC? Sure, just like any city. Are there social climbers who you won't want to hang out with? Sure, just like anywhere else. Do I miss the West Coast? Sure, especially during the winter. But, if you venture out a little further, in stark contrast to what you describe, you will find a really interesting and smart cross section of people from all over the country and world, many of whom went to those very same second tier schools you deride.
