264. I agree with you.

I live in the suburbs of DC, which are wildly diverse, for the most part. I am aware that this is exceptional, rather than the norm. Areas of DC are totally black, and poor. Other areas are largely Hispanic. Massive immigration has transformed this area, but most of the change is in the suburbs.

There is a fuzzier sort of sorting in the suburbs, too, but the lines are not as firmly drawn. The police don't enforce a line, but there is still a lot of social segregation by race and ethnicity, even if we all mix in the workplace. Social class can also stratify by race in the more affluent areas, where the only minorities present are the servers.

We just moved our Confederate statue a few months ago in Rockville, MD. The black county executive made it a cause.
