Answer 1

I am from Fremont, California, which is in the Bay Area. The Bay Area is one of the most intelligent areas in the United States due to the concentration of many high-tech companies located here. My father works for Yahoo, and almost all of our friends work for companies such as Ebay, Yahoo, etc. since so many of them have HQ's located in this area. The Bay Area has a really diverse population due to all the Asian immigrants like me :D

Answer 2

I live in a metropolitan suburb just north of Dallas, Texas, the largest of the contiguous states. The area where I live is heavily into the telecommunications industry and is located in the wealthiest part of the state. In fact, this area is known as the Telecom Corridor. The banking industry is also highly concentrated in this area, which is not surprising considering its general wealth. Texas in general is heavily conservative, and is ranked near the bottom of the heap among all the states in a number of cultural measurements, including graduation rates, per capita income, median householed income, literacy rates and poverty rates, and the number of individuals possessing advanced educational degrees. The immediate area where I live would rank much higher than the statewide averages on the positive aspects of these measures and much lower on the negative aspects. In fact, it would probably rank much higher or lower than nationwide averages on these same aspects. For example, this area has a median household income of over $70,000 per year, as compared to about $44,000 for the nation. My wife and I personally have an annual income more than one and a half times the $70,000 figure. So, this area is way above national norms in some respects.

My home area has a highly mixed population. There is a relatively large Asian population, with many coming from the Indian sub-continent, Indo-China, China and Japan. Hispanics comprise a large percentage of our population in this area also. But I also meet Russians, Italians, Romanians and other European nationals as well. Owing to these factors, there are a wide variety of cuisines to choose from when dining out, and one is exposed to many different types of people and can learn a great deal about other world cultures by interacting with these immigrants.

For a little background information, you might want to know that I am a sixth generation Texan and a descendant of one of the founders of the state, so my roots run deep here. One of my maternal great-great-great-grandfathers was John Wheeler Bunton. Here's a link about him and his life:

In 1932 he was honored by the Daughters of the Republic of Texas when his body was moved from his former estate near Mountain City to the Texas State Cemetery, in Austin. He also was a great-great-uncle of Lyndon Baines Johnson, the 36th president of the United States.

Answer 3

I live in central Illinois.
My town has a population of about 15,000 and is sometimes considered a suburb of a larger city nearby.

We have a lot of farms.... mostly corn and soybeans. It gets pretty dull sometimes.

We're also a growing city. The population is growing and we are getting more buildings and stores, and becoming more industrialized.

We're actually a predominantly white town (by no means racist, however) and there isn't a whole lot of cultural diversity.

Hope this helps. :-)
