Oh for sure. However, I feel like Edina has a more well known old money connotation than SW Minnie does

Fort Worth - TCU area is normally considered the wealthiest part (Tanglewood, Stonehenge Clan, Overton Woods, Park Hill).
The Ridgmar area over by Westover Hills is also a nice area. Westover Hills is a wealthy suburb inside of FW.
Arlington - Lake Arlington would be the wealthiest part, but it's more middle class with some upper middle class thrown in. The area around Dalworthington Gardens also has some wealthy communities. Like above Dalworthington Gardens is a wealthy suburb inside of Arlington.

Irving - Las Colinas & Valley Ranch simple as that.

Dallas - Preston Hollow (the moneyist of money) , Bluffview, Far North Dallas. My knowledge of Dallas isn't the best. The park cities (University Park/Highland Park) are also considered the wealthiest of wealth, but again are suburbs inside of Dallas. Dallas people is the Lakewood area wealthy? I feel like it is but never hear anything about it.

Jackson, Mississippi
In-town: Eastover (established, secluded), Belhaven (historic), Woodland Hills (elegant)
Suburbs: Madison area (new, huge houses)

Mississippi Gulf Coast
Pass Christian (magazine beautiful), Ocean Springs (magazine beautiful)

Memphis

I hadn't heard of Dunthorpe, it looks like it's technically just outside the city limits. The neighborhoods south along Macadam and getting into the Tualatin Mountains are pretty rich, but for a neighborhood more within the core of the city, the one that immediately jumps to mind for me is Laurelhurst.

For Seattle, Queen Anne probably. For Spokane, Cliff-Cannon.

Columbus, GA

1) Green Island Hills
2) Weracoba/Lakebottom Park
3) Midland (suburb)

Edina is a suburb and not really urban, so, no.

These are the wealthy neighborhoods in the city of Minneapolis:

• Lowry Hill
• Kenwood
• Linden Hills
• Prospect Park surrounding the Witch's Hat
• Pockets of downtown (all residential on/within a block of Nicollet Mall, Mill District, the North Loop, portions of Loring Park)
• Nicollet Island
• Main St./St. Anthony Main
• The entire stretch of Minnehaha Parkway

OP asked for cities or suburbs. But even so…
Most of Edina looks near identical in urbanity to SW Minneapolis. Dense housing stock with back alley driveways, lots of city bus access. 50th and France is completely urban.

You think prospect park is old money? It’s filled with U of M overflow college students. St Anthony main? It’s all condos. Nicollet island doesn’t even have housing, it’s just an island in the middle of a river. Are we talking about the same metro?

I didn't say all of Prospect Park, I said the part of Prospect Park surrounding the Witch's Hat. There are quite a few opulent homes along the hillsides in that area.

I think you're very confused about Nicollet Island. There's quite a collection of old Victorian homes as well as historic apartments, a high school, a hotel, an event venue, and lots of city parkland. Very high-income area.

For the Nashville metro, it would most definitely be Belle Meade, a tony old-money neighborhood that is within the jurisdiction of City of Nashville/Davidson County. On the other hand, Brentwood and Franklin (down in Williamson County) are more "new money" and are more similar to the cookie cutter suburbs you find in DFW, Atlanta etc.

Also, OP, just noticed the last city on your list is Hialeah, Florida. Yes, Hialeah is densely populated but is really just a relatively low-income municipality, directly adjacent to the city of Miami. Maybe not worth including in your paper
