I actually disagree - they are either living over their means not a yuppie or way higher in income than a yuppie

Or from NYC, Philly and Boston partying

I was actually hesitant about adding it in since most of the cities of choice have already been excluded.

How about Portland, Seattle, Austin, and maybe Denver?

Seattle, San Diego, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Mineapolis, Detroit etc.

I still go with Baltimore, correct me if I am worng but I believe this demographic does not have kids - thats why I say Baltimore, but Seattle and San Diego may also be in the same discussion

The odd thing in NE is among yuppies it is hard to find people with kids before 35-40


Denver is a city I have literally only spent 20 hours in, I know nothing of it, I need to make the trip

That sounds about right.

That is a late start for children, maybe European family traditions still in play with influence?
