Yes. I think it's important to have disparate classes living together in a dense urban environment, rather than a homogeneity of wealth.
In fact, I believe that attention to this priority is one of the main reasons that NYC is the greatest city in the history of world civilization, versus the bland expanse of stripmalls, chain retail, and cultural drought that defines the American living experience in many other areas.
