Did u actually read the link? Super rich? The links i posted reflect a more accurate portrayal. DC has a higher median income and higher per capita income than Chicago.
And this is relevant or important to the thread question in what context?
That's still a lot of jobs (52%). A lot of jobs in any metro are going to be things like teachers, police officers, state workers, etc. I think a better analysis would focus on private sector jobs outside of the retail industry.

Not everyone in DC, but as BajanYankee mentioned, 52% is a lot. In fact, that's a HUGE number of federal jobs. Imagine 1 in 2 jobs being gone if the fed wasn't there. And that's too low too, because many other companies/industries wouldn't be there if the fed wasn't there.

So is yours.
And that opinion is shared by many, including govt workers themselves.
and people who work in the stock yards. See what I just did there?
