“If I Only had a Brain!” – Bites of Washington

December 30th, 2007 by Rich Jacobson

Well, according to the latest census study, Seattle has once again garnered the Top Spot as the Smartest City in the US.scarecrow.gif

Data collected shows that 52.7 percent of the residents of the Emerald City aged 25-and over hold a bachelor’s degree or higher.

Seattle is followed by the City by the Bay, San Francisco; then Raleigh, North Carolina; Washington, D.C.; and Austin, Texas, rounding out the Top Five.

So, how does this affect us here on the Kitsap Peninsula? Can we simply claim intelligence by virtue of proximity? Are we able to absorb the Seattlite’s collective brain power through some cosmic process of osmosis?

 

Or maybe, instead of telling people that I’m from Silverdale WA, I’ll just say “Seattle” and they’ll automatically think I’m a Smarty Pants!

Oh, Thank You, Wizard of Oz!
