There are quite a lot of personal attacks and assumptions in your post so I'm just going to ignore them.

I came from a very safe metro area in Canada and had no notion of elitism as you so randomly assumed about me. When I moved, Canada was a lot more balanced and there was not a large income/wealth gap as it currently exists in the US.

I had no rose colored glasses or impression that because I was "sharing a zip code with billionaires" I would be safe. I took every day as it came and discovered that just existing and living near downtown felt unsafe for me and my family.

The most powerful force around discussions of safety and lifestyle is comparison. When you see multiple places with your own eyes and body, it's a lot easier to compare and you get a sense of what feels right or wrong, for you.

Your entire response is very strange, it might be helpful to reflect where your perceptions, biases and opinions around wealth come from because you threw a small net and ended up empty handed.
