Heh this may be amusing - look up your postal code, and find out how some marketing wonks classify you.  :D

Edit: I got "Suburban Success", though where I live is hardly "suburban".  :P

I got 13, Asian Avenues.  Successful, middle-aged or older Asian families.

This works for Hong Kong? Or dod you use your old Vancouver Address?

I used my old Vancouver postal code.  We don't use postal codes in HK.

Makes sense.

Makes sense.

I still remember my old postal code because (1) I said it so many times during those four years and (2) there are many people and websites that do not accept the idea that some places on Earth can function without postal codes.  So if some website insists that I input a valid postal code before I can proceed to the next page, I use that one.

I get Kids & Careers, and yes it is eerily accurate.

I am surprised you still remember the basic premise of Strike Witches.  It really does bother you  :lol:

Now they have made a new anime with cute girls representing WWII warships.  This time without the panties showing.  Well, with only a few exceptions anyway :P

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

04 - Wealthiest non urban segment.  The description of the people living in this neighbourhood  was also eerily accurate.

Same as me.  :lol:

Except I think of where I am as "urban".

I live right next to a Provincial Park and one of the local ski hills is 5 minutes drive further up the hill so it is pretty accurate for me.

In contrast, I live right next to a subway station entrance and Bloor Street - one of Toronto's two main streets, and shopping district crowded with restaurants, bakeries and the like - is literally one block away.

I think we can graduate you to the "Wealthiest Segment" and not worry about the non urban part.  :D

They probably have categories based on distance from what they regard as "downtown".

IS there a way to search out and read all the categories?

Naw, the wealthiest segment is "Cosmopolitan Elite". Try entering a bridal path postal code like M2L1C9.  ;)

We don't make it.  :cry:
