which makes sense, because they cost money
Its 17,665 where I live
Raising a child from 0-18 costs around 200k, from what I've read
Per capita income is an areas total income divided by population
Okay, unfamiliar with the metric
Per capita in my neighborhood is 51k
That makes sense actually with consideration for children.
City in general is 29k
I’m also in the only majority white neighborhood in the city
This neighborhood be rayciss
Median household income in my town is $31,004. Seattle is $83,476.
Oof
Also, the per capita number I used was old. It's $16,086 in my town now.
46k household here
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
>tfw right
It really do be like that
Pay attention to how the public areas in neighborhoods are maintained
$48,686 per capita income in Seattle vs $16,086 in my town
It really didn't even dawn on me to look it up, it was simply trusted instinct
The nicer the street lamps and the more flowers the more Caucasian it is
Seattle has a poverty rate of 13% vs 40% here
Will someone explain to me why poor areas have to look the way they do
Tfw never have to worry in my 99.17% white village
“I’m poor therefore I can’t not throw old furniture out in my lawn”
@Auf WI No, scroll up and look at the difference in median household income. It's still way higher in Seattle.
Is there a worse look than a dirty, chipped, white plastic chair in your lawn?
@ophiuchus Perhaps they are poor because they don't take pride in those types of things.
@ophiuchus become who you are
Time to have an old couch on the porch
Seattle vs where I live
@Auf WI who would even sit in such an abomination though? I dont need to absorb BPAs through my glutes
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
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.
Gotta watch the venison on the grill
Anyway, despite all this, Seattle is gross, while my town is pretty great
