    Much like alleged law degrees don't either.

    Ha, good point, but minivans are not that sophisticated.  All Arlington residents should be given range rovers, audis, and beamers…

    We also have a very high cost of living. Just looking at income is pointless.

    Right, and to me, I feel these “lists” are more of a “look how rich we are and how rich you aren't” list.

    Hence a “we're so sophisticated”. However, Loudon County is ranked #1 on the list, I would imagine the cost of living is a little bit lower if you rent there, not if you own. I imagine it's a lot of mansions out there.

    The “sophisticated” DC area types are the types who use the term “cheers” to mean thank you, because they think British = sophisticated as well as all the status stuff that results like this makes them temporarily happy, until their materialism drives them to the psychiatrist office again for more meds.

    They also call themselves “foodies” so people know they go out to eat a lot.

    Heaven forbid they should “cook” or whatever that word is called, but forutnately they do get granite countertops for the kitchens they never use.
