Your Neighborhood

Well, mine's kind of a rural-ish area outside of a small town, so if you're talking about my *immediate* neighborhood, none of the above. But if you're talking about the general flavor of the town I live in, definitely new money rich. Not including me.

Blech.

I live in the affordable (for us) part of an affluent community. It consists of small, single homes, selling for about $200,000, I'd guess, with combined property taxes of about $5,000. A couple of blocks over one way is low income housing (very small multifamily dwellings). A couple blocks the other way are $350,000+ homes, with taxes of about $8,000.
