If they are sending money back home, it is because both spouses have good jobs. One friend has a daughter doing post-grad work at a top "Tech" school, and another daughter about to start Med School, probably at Harvard after doing her undergrad there and spending a year at Oxford.

Our local high schools' top students are disproportionately Asian or south Asian (Indian). I hope they all stay here and maga/trump doesn't run them out.
