发帖数: 33123 | 11 That is not my concern. In fact, the Chinese population in Wellesley is not
very low.
The real fear is simply an money issue, that I do not have enough money to
keep an average living standard there. For instance, the public schools were
not that great as many families send their kids to private schools, which
are very pricy. Another thing is: You may not have interests to care other
people's living styles, but your kids do. Put this way: I do not want to
live in a neighborhood where my family is way below the average.

发帖数: 33123 | 23 I don't know what you are talking about now:
I said Wellsley is a wealthy place many engineers like me can barely afford,
but unlike Weston which is out of reach. Do you agree or not?
You example is not valid from my point of view: You cannot use price 20-30
years ago to judge the life today. Most people will buy their house with
neighbors having similar income. A good town doesn't have to be in the
neightborhood that most people are richer than you. For instance, Lexington
and Acton have better school systems than Wellesley.
I admit I probably a little paranoid on the feelings for kids. But
personally I do not want to move to a house which is referred to the worst
on the street.

发帖数: 4527 | 27 sort of.
I think we need to adjust our view of good town.
Of course, people do change the view of what makes a good town from time to
time.
For me, the number 1 is safety (life is short and risky).
The number 2 is location (for convenience to jobs, shop, entertainment), (
again life is short and we need save time)
Then it is school system, there are tons of kids from so so school can enter
a top college and there are tons of kids from nice public school enter into
a so so college (that may include my kid, given that I came out from a top
college and I still a nobody all my life, I don't have a lot feeling about
that).
