Posted by ArtVandelay
|
Good call. I was also thinking Montclair but it doesn't really have the shopping does it?*
Posted by ATL
|
Edina *
Posted by MC
|
think Edina is more like Evanston*
Posted by ECEIllinois
|
I got stuck in a snowbank; I was too drunk to drive to Edina
Posted by ATL
|
Can’t really think of a good example bc people here expect everyone to know all the suburbs *
Posted by MC
|
Think large, affluent suburb located a distance from the city *
Posted by ATL
|
New money an important component. *
Posted by haighter
|
Heh. The only time I spent any time in Walnut Creek was 25 years ago and it was nice then *
Posted by ATL
|
I lived in Walnut Creek, it’s aweaome
Posted by Sounder
|
Yea...I don't really have a problem with Walnut Creek...and I don't think I have one with...
Posted by haighter
|
I don't think people who live in Walnut Creek wish they lived in Marin
Posted by Sounder
|
I dunno man...Tam Junction gettin super trendy. Which reminds me...remember the MarinDad meme? *
Posted by haighter
|
Marin is beautiful, but honestly the people annoy the shit out of me*

Bellevue*
Posted by Sounder

Chesterfield*
Posted by CWR10
|
I thought for sure that'd be Clayton. Or is Clayton more like Arlington Heights?
Posted by DanSaint
|
Clayton is an inner ring burb. Old money, in the WashU orbit, transplants from the coasts
Posted by CWR10
|
smarch and I, being city folk, went to "the district" at chesterfield a couple weeks ago
Posted by VIV
|
Arlington Heights isn’t the rich area. *
Posted by VIV
|
Really? It was at one point, right? Maybe Highland Park?*
Posted by DanSaint
|
Winnetka, Kenilworth, Glencoe are the old-money rich. Highland Park is new-money rich.
Posted by VIV
|
My one rich family member lived in Lake Forest...which basically seemed almost "not Chicago"...

Yep*

McLean is more like the Wilmette of DC
Posted by timmer
|
McLean is too close for a Naperville comparison. That's a problem for DC
Posted by Potomac
|
Vienna or Tysons Corner?*
Posted by complainant
|
Tysons is confusing. It’s mall / office park hell but no N’ville
Posted by timmer

I've only just heard of the place that's calling itself One Loudoun so that gets my vote
