    Default One of the wealthiest counties in the United States is also heavily Evangelical Christian!

    Loudoun County, Virginia- where I grew up is now one of the richest counties in the nation. It is also the headquarters for Home Schooling Foundation, and home to many Conservative Evangelical Christian institutions, including Patrick Henry College. My old school I went to is now being revamped for Classical Christian education. I am writing to say this because people believe religion breeds poverty or only poor areas can be Christian. Maybe this is a paradox in the United States of America. Loudoun County is also one of the top "educated" with more people with college degrees than elsewhere. This shatters the myth of uneducated and Christian.

    You were also homeschooling, how did it workout for you? Homeschooling is extremely bad decision made by parents.

    No, it is an amazing choice ! Many home schoolers go off to get better jobs as well. Patrick Henry College was built for home schoolers in mind.

    Yes also chipotle employees. You are perfect example that kids homeschooling turn out wierd, 0 social skills, totally unaware. Doesn't hang out with kids of his age throughout most of his life. School is not just learning from the books, but it gives you life experience in alot of aspects. ( Arguments, Cheating, Women, Behaviour, Consequences, hatred/love, friends, competetiveness and much more).

    I have written over 300 songs and sang at America's Polo Cup. Nothing to sneeze at. Many home schoolers have their own social networks. You don't need school to meet friends.

    I honestly think homeschooling is not really the cause but the consequence.

    It's only wealthy because of it's proximity to Washington, DC and the large amounts of Federal money that gets spent there.

    30 years ago it wasn't all that wealthy and it has always been close to DC.

    It seems pretty liberal these days. https://www.loudountimes.com/news/up...f3a6c976a.html

    "Though the country was still awaiting the final outcome of the presidential election early Thursday, Democratic nominee Joe Biden had easily won Loudoun County with 61 percent over the vote compared to Republican President Donald J. Trump’s 37 percent."

    "In recent years, Loudoun County's rapid growth in its eastern portion, settled by educated professionals working in or near Washington, D.C., has changed the demographics of the county, and the Democratic Party has become increasingly competitive. After giving Senator Barack Obama nearly 54% of its presidential vote in 2008, the county supported Republican Bob McDonnell in 2009, who received 61% of the gubernatorial vote. Voters also replaced two incumbent Democratic delegates, making Loudoun's state House delegation all Republican. In 2012 county voters again supported Obama, who took 51.5% of the vote, with Republican challenger Mitt Romney garnering 47%.

    Democrats carried the county again in the 2016 presidential election, when Loudoun swung heavily towards Hillary Clinton, giving her 55.1% to Donald Trump's 38.2%. In 2020, Joe Biden won over 60 percent of the vote."
