Where I grew up

Monday, August 9th, 2004 | Pete Stuff

Was just browsing around online today and found the home page for the city I grew up in (Irvine, CA) and, more disturbingly, found the demographics page they have posted.. The two that caught my eye in particular were these two:

Ethnicity:

White 57%
Asian & Pacific Islander 29.8%
Hispanic 7.4%
Black 1.4%
Other 4.4%
Registered Voters:
Registered71,490
    Republican48.4%
    Democrat29.2%
    Other22.4%

Just confirms what I already feared but couldn’t confirm - I grew up in Stepford. ACK.

Yes, it’s disturbing to drive through Irvine and suddenly see all the Bush/Cheney signs. But it gives me a nice place to start my late night sign bombing.
