Not really. Less than half the populace has one, compare the numbers to Madison or Evanston, IL for examples of other places I was that day.

So you'd feel more comfortable in a Black Belt county with about half this percentage of college degrees because it votes Democratic?

Yes.

What's good about Waukesha County anyway? Lots of chain fast food places you can find anywhere?

I have no special love for the WOW counties because they're Republican, and I would find it strange for you to have a fondness for a shltty area that votes Democratic.

On a side note coming from someone who has ZERO problem with living in a place with politics well to the left of mine (currently live in Iowa City and moving to Chicago August 1st), I have got to say that Evanston was one of the more overrated places I have ever been ... so talked up and just "meh."  For a college town, give me Madison, Iowa City, Champaign, etc. any day of the week.

You'd hate it where I live. Imagine seeing anti-Republican signs in local business windows.

A restaurant I frequent down the street (Stella) literally tried to charge Trump supporters $10 to get in shortly after the 2016 election.  Thankfully, though one of the most liberal places you can be, even Iowa City saw this is a close-minded, petty thing to do.
