I live on an old money street. The women are noxious gossiping hags who have way too much free time. What I would give for a few houses to turn over to new money - preferably minority or Jewish new money. All I want for Christmas is one less wasp ??

Majority "old money" areas are basically a myth. Having even 5%-15% "old money" in an area is actually a very large amount.
Don't know when you were in Ch Ch, but in the decades that I was growing up the area, SES was massively more diverse than it is now. In current day Ch Ch, the poor are doctors and lawyers. When I grew up, there were definitely people from old families, including Southern ones and Gilded Age fortures, business owners and executives, lawyers, doctors, etc. BUT there were also lots of feds, lots of academics, lots o' journos (including the non-celebrity kind) and actually a few people who, gasp, worked with their hands!
My parents paid $50,000 for their house and its now work at $900,000+ (probably more). Its a very different area now. Not a chance we'd move in, even if we get a free house. It was great when we grew up as everyone was always outside and very social. Now, I just see the service staff and the street are very quiet. Our section was not old money at all. Other sections were.
