How do you get the SES diversity when everyone is making $100-200K a year and there is "not much poverty" to "drag the averages down"?   Sounds like people in the exurbs can't agree on what they offer, or are talking out of both sides of their mouths.

Nope, the exurbs are where people run off to when they want to live in a bubble where everyone is above-average and has a shiny new house in the latest development "away from it all."  It's a terrible development model because there's always one more subdivision to be built further out and no one ever bothers to make sure there are jobs nearby or a transportation infrastructure in place to support all the new commuters.

Yes, we can talk on both sides of our mouth because we can. There are very expensive and cheaper housing available. The poor do not live in the ghetto. Middle income people also do not live like that. High income people also exist. Some have long commutes, some do not. Everytime I look for jobs I see a lot of jobs in Germantown, Rockville, Gaithersburg. You would have to pay a lot more than what I am making now to take a job in DC.
