[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to Redfin, there have been 444 sales of single-family houses over the past two years over $1.5 million in McLean and 97 in Alexandria. And Alexandria has almost three times the population as McLean. At the same time, median household incomes in McLean are over twice as high as in Alexandria. There surely must be a better way for you to make the case you're trying to make for living in Alexandria without getting into factual disputes where you're on such shaky ground. [/quote] And yet you neither understand what "median" means (Alexandria's is lower because it has more diversity, but it has OBJECTIVELY more higher income households), nor that Redfin only captures recent sales, which is due to duration of home ownership. Honestly I don't have beef with McLean as much as was saying something positive about Alexandria when a PP came on here to knock it down. McLean is where you go if you never want to interact with a middle-class person, ever. And ideally also rarely interact with black or hispanic people. But lots of rich people actually (gasp!) enjoy living in a place with more diversity.[/quote]
