Do wealthier suburbs tend to support the Liberals more? The US is pretty backwards where the higher income you are, the more likely you are to support the democrats (obviously a huge generalization).
The question really seems to be is which direction is the cause and effect.
- TheCoelacanth 5y ago> The US is pretty backwards where the higher income you are, the more likely you are to support the democrats That might feel correct because high income geographic areas tend to vote Democratic and low income geographic areas tend to vote Republican, but it's the opposite for individual voters[1][2]. High income voters skew Republican and low income voters skew Democratic.
