We are in an area where the western half of our county is extremely affluent and the eastern half of the county is significantly less so. We live in the eastern half of the county in an older neighborhood of blue and white collar families. This is true of the folks in our PRIDE classes and my coworker who is also a foster parent.

So far, when we talk about our decision to foster, we've received lots of positive comments. Adoption is VERY common in our area. It is a very liberal, socially aware community. As a result, I think, regardless of the incomes around us, folks are pretty positive.
