Washington D.C. is a great example of this. While looking at residential location choice, around 10 years ago, you could discern a boundary (Georgia Ave in those days). Netflix used to show the most popular movies by zip code, and one side of the boundary it was "Mamma Mia" and the other "Tyler Perry". |

The bureaucrats, lawyers, doctors, and career officers (Pentagon) were highly concentrated in a few neighborhoods that border the Potomac (Old Town through Fort Hunt). A few blocks away, the Rt 1 corridor was largely working class or lower class, with some young enlisted families from Ft Belvior.
This extended to my high school - there were 3 buildings - first was arts/music, second was STEM and honors, and the third was the gym, auto shop, wood shop, and cooking. It's not hard to imagine there were students who never entered building 1. And the only reason I was ever in building 3 was the weight room and the one semester of auto shop I took.
