Real housewives of New Albany would be similar to Potomac. New money drama and scandals.

Parts Bexley and south of Lane Avenue in Upper Arlington. Werner and his icky executives live in New Albany.

Maybe Oakwood?

I wouldn’t call it posh. Just another golf course community.

It’s just…not all that.


It’s probably nice…for Ohio. You know kids these days literally fall things “Ohio” when they mean bad, lame, etc.

Maybe in the imaginations of people who live in Ohio. Ugh.

Tesla trucks are pretty ubiquitous at this point, PP. Where have you been?


About 12,000 cybertrucks have been sold so far, hardly ubiquitous.


Three in one day, outside of a factory or otherwise explainable hot spot, is pretty unusual.

I went to college in Cincinnati and Hyde Park is... interesting. The city as a whole is fairly segregated and people seem to live in their own bubbles without much self-awareness. Everyone, literally everyone, sends their kids to private school. The poor kids go to private Catholic schools, and it goes up from there.


Ah yes, all those prole boys at St. Xavier Catholic High School. lol


The poor kids go to DIFFERENT Catholic schools, obvs. The cheapest private schools are Catholic, but Catholic schools are not always the cheapest.

^For people who haven't been to OH + have a " hick impression" of it, there are several corporate HQs, major law firms, and hospitals there, so there are a lot of wealthy people. Home prices are lower than DC, so you can get a pool, horses, etc. there at most better prices.

*Agree with this! I grew up in Cincy...much nicer/ bigger houses there.

*I also lived in Columbus Worthington + Bexley are wealthy neighborhoods there.

* I went to law school in Cleveland. My favorite wealthy neighborhood there is Chagrin Falls. Gorgeous! Gates Mills is nice + rich too.
