Unless your in-boundary homes and families are like that, you won't get a flip like that.

People who are rich don't live in the hill

Any person who makes over $118,500 in gross wages a year is in the top 5% of wage earners in this country. They are well off by any measure if they are purchasing a home on the Hill.

in DC, 118k doesn't get you far at all. Considering renovated homes in the Brent boundary START at 800k. I hate it when people compare DC income to rest of the country. We have the most expensive child care in the entire country and probably the third most expensive real estate in the country. Being 5% in a national ranking is meaningless if you live in DC.

And you don't need to see the FARMS data to know its' happening.

You may not need FARMS data, but it helps to have demographic data.

Why?

Because we don't want to be the only Asian family at the school.

You live in DC.

23:27 is a troll fail. Everyone know no real Asian would send their kids into a DC school.

Times are changing. There are four kids of Asian descent in a K class at Brent, same number as in the entire school several years ago.
