I seem to recall this was true of Miami at one time but I'm unsure how 
it is currently.
St. Louis used to have its wealthy in the south but now much has moved 
to St. Charles.
In Dallas, Irving to the south used to be the wealth concentration.
My current place of residence is divided so the ruling class resides in 
the south and east.
North Little Rock is certainly working class.
I imagine local geography is the deciding factor most of the time in 
determining the physical location of classes.
