Fascinating tool here by the reviled New York Times. Many people can use this tool if they want to know the political leanings of a suburb or neighborhood.

The 2020 Election wasn't the traditional red vs blue state. It was truly the country and the Exurbs vs the City and the Suburbs.

The City and the Suburbs won in 2020. We will see what happens in 3 weeks.

I'm only going to focus on Texas:

Most Conservative cities in Texas:
Amarillo, Midland, Odessa, Tyler

Dallas-Ft Worth:
Rockwall and North East Tarrant County cities like Keller, Southlake and Colleyville are going to be the areas with the strongest support of Trump.
Trump has lots of support in Roanoke and Flower Mound.
Biden had tons of votes in Denton.

In Dallas County the most heavily republican part of the city are the Park Cities, parts of Lake Highlands and Preston Hollow.

Far North Dallas, Uptown, Kessler Park and Lakewood are the affluent communities in Dallas that tend to lean left.
There is a bright red spot in Oak Cliff that happens to be where Dallas Baptist is located.

Arlington, Irving, Richardson, Lewisville, Carrollton, Garland, and (very surprisingly) Plano, Allen and a lot of Frisco had a ton of people who voted for Joe Biden over Trump.

The amount of blue neighborhoods in Frisco, Little Elm, Allen and Plano was pretty surprising to me.
Coppell is about 50/50 between people that voted for Trump or Biden.

Austin:
Westlake Hills voted 2:1 for Biden over Trump.
Georgetown, Leander and Dripping Springs are going to be your most conservative pockets of the Austin metro area.

Bryan/College Station:
The City of Bryan voted for Biden. College Station is mostly red except for the campus of Texas A&M.
Might there be a future Collin Alredd going to school right now at A&M?

I must admit that I was quite surprised at the political leanings of the A&M campus.

Houston:
The Woodlands, Kingwood, Tomball, Friendswood, Northwest Harris County, River Oaks and Tanglewood are going to be your most heavily Republican areas. Sugar Land looks about 50/50 between Democrats and Republicans.

Everywhere else in Houston voted for Biden over Trump.
The affluent areas of H-Town that tend to lean left include West University Place, Bellaire and Montrose.
Lots of professors, researchers and doctors live in the high end neighborhoods near the Texas Medical Center.

Joe Biden got 91% of the Rice University vote compared to 8% for Trump.

Thanks. Didn't know I had so many libs living in my neighborhood.

Our school (among many other A&M businesses) are liberal rags…

what color coding were the graveyards

+51 Trump. So glad I moved out of the ****hole known as Harris county

How do they have this information? I thought voting records were private?

They have to count every box / precinct and report the numbers.

Our neighborhood in SW Montgomery County went +65 Trump!

This is personally depressing to me, but more importantly these areas have been solid red for decades. They fact they're purple now does not bode well for future elections.

Same…. +16 Biden….woof

Yeah, I guess that's probably pretty reliable, but might not be if someone votes from near their job vs their home (which probably happens quite a bit).

Awesome ! My affluent highly educated area west of Georgetown +30 Trump. Kelso loves to pimp this narrative that dems win urban/affluent areas while ignoring the bluest areas in may metros are the ghettos.

Oak cliff/South Dallas carries the day for the rats in Dallas county. And those blue areas in Midland and Ector counties are not affluent. I see the same trend in many metro areas. Sure the old money areas are blue and always have been. After all they didn't make that money, daddy or grand-daddy did. Innovative New money is usually Red. Musk is a prime example.

While the result for the A&M campus might be depressing, it only represents a couple thousand votes. We have 70k students. There have to be a lot more than two thousand kids in the dorms - where did their votes get counted?

Well done West Texas.

+29 Trump in my NT neighborhood last election.

None of that is surprising to me in the least.

I assume Bryan went Biden because of demographics. I have no idea what Bryan is like these days. Haven't been there in 30 years.

I guess these are the numbers after the cheat?

Don't know if you are being sarcastic but all this does is reflect the fact that larger urban areas go blue. Nothing shocking about this at all.

I think the more impactful cheating goes on in the swing areas that truly decide the election as already documented.

I'd be willing to bet that very few dorm residents (or college students in general) officially change their residence to B/CS and are still registered to vote in their hometown all the way through college.

89% Trump in my rural Wisconsin precinct. Suspect it will be higher this time around.

They vote at home. My son is a sophmore and is voting in Bell County. I imagine the students voting in college station are older, perhaps married that have permanent residence in College Station. Most students don't have permanent residence there.

Lots of professors, researchers and doctors live in the high end neighborhoods near the Texas Medical Centers.


Dont lump doctors in with the "assume they are all libs" category. Professors, yes for most part. Not a single doctor colleague I have is voting Kamala. And I live in Austin.

so looks like I have to move to Merritt Island and stay far away from Daytona Beach

the fascinating thing is how many districts had under 300 voters.

The Orange County & San Diego county map aligns almost perfectly with the heavy Asian/Indian population concentrations. That is exactly what has shifted those counties from Red to Blue/Purple.

Trump has lots of support in Roanoke and Flower Mound.

I can vouch for this. Trump signs easily outnumber Harris signs 2:1 in the Roanoke/Trophy Club/Argyle/Flower Mound area.

My children always came home to vote so they could vote in local races.

My town is redder than a baboon's ass... Trump +82

Regardless of where you vote it is tallied to your registration address, i.e., precinct.

Last night I was talking to a guy from Bulgaria, been in states for 8 years. Showed up with $200 in net worth and started a kitchen remodel business from scratch. He works out of south San Francisco. He has two daughters attending Brown University.

He was complaining about cash flow as it relates to late payments for work completed and chase bank taking the payments he finally received and not clearing a check for weeks. Essentially saying the economy sucks.

One thing led to another and he says he hopes the economy will pick up soon and I said that the economy may pick up quicker after election depending on the outcome. He then immediately says not if Trump wins. I asked him why he thought Trump would be bad for the economy, and he cited in the following order:
-He's crazy
-Jan 6th
-that's not the way our economy works in California
-Kamala small business incentives
-Trump is only in it to make money and help rich people/friends


Needless to say, I was disappointed in his lack of depth in terms of assessing media narratives... A hard working legal immigrant who built up a thriving business who's now struggling but thinks Kamala is the answer to his problems. I'm not about to get into a political debate with someone citing Jan 6 etc in passing, but it ended with him asking me who I thought would help the economy.

I said Trump would because that's how the economy works in Texas.

I know cool story, but it was enlightening to me given the guy's story. I guess since he's in California, it won't matter in the overall election if he's not alone. But I'm left wondering how many people like him (immigrant status aside) that aren't California feel the same…?

My neighborhood is red. My street, a cul-de-sac with 16 homes, has 4 yards with Trump signs. But I went to the mailbox earlier this week and found something surprising - a yard with a freaking Harris sign those clowns also have one of those signs with all kinds of commie Democrat crap slogans on it (believe in science, side with BLM, etc). I don't know these people, and now I know I don't want to. I am certain it would be mere minutes after meeting them that I would say something they would not like.

Our street in North Dallas was purple to light blue. Our church was very local and most of the guys I met there were red aside from one of them. Point being the sane folks congregated at our local church. Only way to filter out the loser Dems all around us. I'm not saying anything surprising here, obviously.

Of course, in Dallas, you have to filter your church before you pick one since the far left has hijacked several of them.

Looking in my part of the world, it also tracks pretty closely with racial demographics.

And a special shout out to the 23 voters in Precinct 110404, Armstrong County, Texas, who went 100% for Trump

Looks like my neighborhood went +15 Biden. One area directly adjacent to us went +26 Trump and another went +33 Biden. We're relatively far north of Dallas so kind of in a transitional area.

It's tied to where you are registered.
