Greece is an aging suburb and I'm sure it has some pockets of poverty.  
However, in comparison to where I grew up and to where I teach, it is a 
relatively well-to-do suburb.  When I was a kid, growing up in the city 
(30 years ago), the schools were very highly regarded.  As far away as I 
live (100 miles) and this many years later, we still read of innovations 
taking place in that district.
As an example, when Art and I last exchanged messages, he seemed 
somewhat aghast when I explained that in our district we have no 
department chairpeople and no department secretaries.  I think he was 
department chair of a fairly large mathematics department in his district.
