Columbia Citizens

My snarky note to Seattle Met:

Hi guys:

Your listings this year are fun. I love the interface.

I always take these with some salt. This year I'll need to have my sodium checked. Please see attached.

In "diversity" (A really crummy way to measure this, btw. I'm white, and I'd like to have some part in diversity. Try something like Simpson's index instead) Columbia City comes in below "New Holly"-Othello and… everywhere else. This week my co-worker joked that our deputy mayor is the sole representative of Columbia City's diversity. More grist here for that mill…

Columbia Citizens would certainly benefit from an academic degree or two, and whoa — no kids! You know, I've been suspicious about that Pied Piper children's series in Mt. Baker.

Seems like this list is due for an update, and hopefully a prominently stated correction. Would you let Stefan know please?

Thanks.

S.

Somehow Rainier Valley fell off the map. It's only slightly less embarrassing than this 2008 P-I gaffe:
