Even more off-topic, here's something I don't understand:
- Cheapest home for sale in Atherton on Zillow is listed for $3.2 million
- The public schools shown to be in the same area as this house have unbelievably low scores (as measured by GreatSchools.org):
-- Selby Lane Elementary (assigned) .... 4/10
-- Garfield Elementary ..................2/10
What gives?
The wealthy people may send their kids to private schools. The public schools may have students from working class families in adjacent areas in the same school district.
I wonder if there is a certain level of wealth where school test scores aren't a worry anymore.
I was once walking through Atherton and a police officer stopped me to make sure I wasn't doing anything suspicious. I suppose the number of "walking while white" infractions a community tallies might be a good (if unfortunate) indication of how wealthy they really are.
The same police officer later bought me a coffee for no particular reason. What a country.
