As we both known the entire area has more risen up in wealth as opposed to Atherton shifting downward in any way. IIRC a big reason the median income is so high in the town of Atherton is that the smallest lot allowed is like a 1/2 acre, and nearly all properties are over an acre. Plus there's almost zero commercial zoning. It remains routinely (not always but often) ranked as #1 richest town or city in America. The same is true of the 94027 zip code in general, consistently top 5, some surveys it's #1.

Agree about Bob 100%! I still remember going to the Memoriam concert a few days after Jerry passed in '95 at the Polo Grounds at GGP. The size of the crowd and collectively grieving (1000's of people crying their eyes out) in that time and place may never be matched for a musical figure.

Bob and Jerry and all the others
