As a follow-up to my post about politics tainting DC's image as a good place to live (at least among some people), it's interesting how so many right-wing blowhards actually choose to live there. And also other more liberal cities like NYC.

For some reason they don't generally congregate in areas where the like-minded are in the majority.

Yes, this is kind of a running joke. The right-wing media figures that demonize "liberal cities" for middle-America suburban audiences choose themselves to live in those liberal cities.

The Upper West Side of Manhattan actually has a fair amount of Fox and alt-right pundits and commentators, which is pretty funny, given the far-left neighborhood politics.

I have a buddy who goes to the same gym as Ann Coulter, though on the Upper East Side, which is more left than far-left.

And, yeah, these people are in the NYC area in part bc of their careers and status as "celebrities", but they could easily live in a conservative suburb. But they don't.

Most of those conservative places are boring to live In.
The huge majority probably.
