She will eventually move to the suburbs when she realizes that changing the city is hopeless. Then she will endlessly complain about how "vanilla" everything is and how she misses the wonderful diversity of the city.

I actually encountered some of the behavior you speak of, when a neighbor’s sister came to visit from an all white area. She said she missed the diversity. I thought she sounded crazy because I was thinking back then, “where have all the white people gone?” I guess my neighbors didn’t miss the “diversity” because they moved to Portland. I don’t miss all that diversity since I got out of there either. Funny how it’s only diverse when there’s only a few white people left.
