I'm guessing this is in the San Gabriel Valley (Metro LA) as opposed to San Mateo County (SF Bay Area). Possibly Monterrey Park? Median household income is way too low to be Arcadia or San Marino.



Population: 195,706 (increasing at about double the national average)
Racial Demographics: 37% White, 30% Hispanic, 22% Black, 9% Asian, 1% Native American, 1% Other
Religion: Church attendance is above the national average with about 45% of the population being Protestant and 40% of the population being Catholic
Density: Sparse Suburban (The city has a huge area)
College graduation rate (over 25 y/o): 32%
Household Income: $111,400
Dominant Industries: Insurance, Finance, Energy

Sounds like a Metro Houston exurb if it's an actual city. Swung R in 2020 (or at least didn't swing significantly D) due to the relatively high Latino and Black (as opposed to Asian) populations, relatlvely high median household income, and relatively low college graduation rate- but likely still went for Biden. Countervailing demographic trends suggest that this locale would've voted similarly D in the past 3-4 election cycles if racial demographics are held constant.

Actually I did a little tricky and picked Richmond, BC. But good guess!
