Which is divided into 5 different social classes.Upper, upper-middle, middle, working and lower. And how Gallups analysis shows how people self categorize themselves into the social class that fits them best. In reading 4.2, shows different train lines in different stops and what the income of that neighborhood is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">   2. Pick the station closest to where you live. Using the concepts from Reading 4.1, what social class tends to live in your neighborhood? Are you surprised (or not) by the answer? Do you feel it is an accurate representation of the people living in your neighborhood?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The train station that&#8217;s the closest to me is 3rd ave 149 st The Bronx. The income states $23,670. And that is a little bit compared to the other incomes on that page. Most of the buildings in the area are low incoming apartments. And there are multiple resource centers where people can get help with assistance. I do feel like it&#8217;s accurate. It may not be the exact amount but I do feel as if it\u2019s still around that amount. People do struggle whether it\u2019s with paying rent or even being able to afford food. Which is why once you get off the train station you will see multiple people trying to find other ways to make a living. Whether it&#8217;s selling flowers or selling some type of food, fruits or even drinks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">     3. Based on Reading 4.2, do you notice a general pattern about social classes in NYC?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I do see a general pattern: people who live anywhere besides Manhattan are middle&nbsp; class. And on the other hand living in Manhattan was more upper class. Which seems to make sense because Manhattan seems to be more expensive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you notice any similarities in the way social class is discussed in readings 4.1 and 4.2?
