4. As is Richmond
whites simply do NOT go to public school. Part of the cost of living in the city itself (we have cities separate from counties) is the cost of private school. Well some do send their kids to magnate schools.

Richmond is about 8 miles by 10. You have $1 million homes 4 blocks from "the hood" we even have our own poor white neighborhood (Oregon Hill-I lived there for a year) and it is all the same.

I knew some social workers who were open in saying that they tried to take their kids-their clients (almost all black) to "the other part of the city" so they knew it existed. 8X10 miles...if that.
