I'm not suggesting special treatment, but rather that it's not healthy for the city to segregate people based on income. We need a diversity of people in every neighborhood possible, including wealth types, high earners, artists, academics, 9-5 "average joes", blue collar types, etc. Without this you get stagnation. I personally would prefer to live in Somerville to a South End loft because it's vibrant area due to the diversity of the population.
