46k household here

2018-11-18 06:31:43 UTC  

I moved near a wealthy area so I could start a service based business--but I didn't look at household income, I just saw it was white and saw nice houses and assumed

2018-11-18 06:31:49 UTC  

>tfw right

2018-11-18 06:32:02 UTC  

It really do be like that

2018-11-18 06:32:16 UTC  

Pay attention to how the public areas in neighborhoods are maintained

2018-11-18 06:32:18 UTC  

$48,686 per capita income in Seattle vs $16,086 in my town

2018-11-18 06:32:35 UTC  

It really didn't even dawn on me to look it up, it was simply trusted instinct

2018-11-18 06:32:36 UTC  

No kids in Seattle I guess

2018-11-18 06:32:36 UTC  

The nicer the street lamps and the more flowers the more Caucasian it is

2018-11-18 06:32:36 UTC  

Seattle has a poverty rate of 13% vs 40% here

2018-11-18 06:33:11 UTC  

Will someone explain to me why poor areas have to look the way they do

2018-11-18 06:33:19 UTC  

Tfw never have to worry in my 99.17% white village

2018-11-18 06:33:20 UTC  

@Jacob look familiar?

“I’m poor therefore I can’t not throw old furniture out in my lawn”

2018-11-18 06:33:31 UTC  

@Auf WI No, scroll up and look at the difference in median household income. It's still way higher in Seattle.

2018-11-18 06:33:58 UTC  

Is there a worse look than a dirty, chipped, white plastic chair in your lawn?

2018-11-18 06:34:00 UTC  

@ophiuchus Perhaps they are poor because they don't take pride in those types of things.

2018-11-18 06:34:27 UTC  

@Flint Yes, except Seattle doesn't have trains

2018-11-18 06:34:32 UTC  

@godric it's in the backyard its fine

2018-11-18 06:34:34 UTC  

@ophiuchus become who you are

2018-11-18 06:35:15 UTC  

Time to have an old couch on the porch

2018-11-18 06:35:16 UTC  

Seattle vs where I live

2018-11-18 06:35:37 UTC  

@Auf WI who would even sit in such an abomination though? I dont need to absorb BPAs through my glutes

2018-11-18 06:36:18 UTC  

If I could I’d pass an ordinance that makes having your house look like complete ass for a span of one year a misdemeanor

2018-11-18 06:36:32 UTC  

Household income in Seattle is higher now than that chart shows, probably because of all the technology companies. That's why the number I posted earlier was different.

2018-11-18 06:36:40 UTC  

Gotta watch the venison on the grill

2018-11-18 06:36:57 UTC  

@godric Just what the Chinese intended

2018-11-18 06:37:07 UTC  

Anyway, despite all this, Seattle is gross, while my town is pretty great

2018-11-18 06:37:19 UTC  

oooh it'd be interesting to compare Spokane to this

2018-11-18 06:37:57 UTC  

concerning degrading housing:I think that's the point of an HOA, but something tells me an HOA would be meeting would be deadly in the ghetto

2018-11-18 06:38:19 UTC  

@Axel I consider anything that inhibits the gloriousness of my glutes to be an act of war

2018-11-18 06:38:24 UTC  

A crime of war

2018-11-18 06:38:31 UTC  

there is almost zero Eastern Europeans here

2018-11-18 06:38:59 UTC  

All in all income doesnt matter though, when you consider living costs. I can afford housing here easily but if I were in, say, Seattle, I would not be in a good position

2018-11-18 06:39:20 UTC  

I added Spokane to the comparison, check it out @ophiuchus

First collumn is Spokane, second is Seattle, third is where I live

2018-11-18 06:39:38 UTC  

@godric I guess skinny jeans are a hate crime then 😂

2018-11-18 06:39:43 UTC  

There are a bunch of Ukrainians in Alberta for some reason, afaik that’s the only strong Eastern European northwest area

2018-11-18 06:39:52 UTC  

There's a site I posted yesterday when we were talking about grocery bills

2018-11-18 06:39:56 UTC  

expatistan

2018-11-18 06:40:03 UTC  

it tells you relative cost of cities

2018-11-18 06:40:13 UTC  

@Jacob seems about right
