Bookmark or Share- Why do people hate the YUPPIES.. Please provide input (New York ...People who hate yuppies are jealous of them. Many NYers don't remember the 1970s and therefore think crime/decline either doesn't exist or is a joke. People forget there's a lot worse than "Yuppies" that could be invading the "hood". Some think they're all white (PS: Not true), so there's the race set. Some hate the fact they're wealthy.
- Different Characteristics of The Hamptons? (New York, Brookhaven ...West Hampton = yuppies and new money. Rich kids who want to hang out at the beach. A lot of summer homes with 20 people co-renting. Southampton = people with money who want to be seen. A lot more old money then you would think and a lot of Manhattan families who have had family homes in Southampton for generations.
- Where are all the YUPPIES (Jacksonville, Atlantic Beach: transplants ...near the St. John's Town Center, San Marco, Riverside, Avondale. There is not really a neighborhood full of yuppies, but there is higher yuppie density in these areas. Also, the Jax Beach/Atlantic Beach/Neptune Beach areas have yuppies too. Jax Beach is a strange mix of young yuppies and middle aged rednecks.
- Where do the yuppies live in Houston? (home, unemployed) - Texas (TX ...Plenty of dinkys here in Midtown. I would estimate 6 figures is entry level to afford to rent/buy a town home round here as they seem to run about 2500/300 a month or 300/375K to buy a decentish one.
- Which city has the most yuppies (young urban professionals)?? (living ...The DC suburbs I think have a good deal of young professional people. I think it and Atlanta are maybe the main areas for so-called "Buppies", which is like black Yuppies. (The Yuppie image, when the word was popular, was generally associated with whites. Also possibly "Buppie" includes older Black professionals as well)
