We're well-educated, two income, goal-oriented professionals who prospered during the Great Recession. To support our upscale suburban lifestyle, both parents work, tolerating long hours and long commutes. Our schedules are complicated, balancing work and activities for our school-aged kids. Because we're all so busy, organization is critical to daily life. To save time, we contract for home maintenance services such as housekeeping and professional cleaners. We're experts on all of our devices. Financially savvy, we continue to invest wisely and grow our portfolios. Interest payments and dividends boost our household income. The comforts of home are priorities; we're proud of our picture-perfect homes, constantly upgrading, and will spend time and money on projects. Everyone in the family reads on tablets, e-readers, or smartphones, but prefer hard copies of epicurean, home, or sports magazines.

Pretty close, but we are in our late 30's.....just barely missed the recession. And we are not tablet savvy.

Most of us are settled, married couples who own single family houses or mobile homes. You can find us in the more rural outskirts of metropolitan areas, mostly in the South. We work in mining, agriculture, manufacturing, health care, retail, and construction. We shop at Walmart and the convenience store; we look for bargains and aren't particularly concerned about brands or quality. Slow to adapt to technology, we get most of our information from satellite TV. We enjoy life in the country, so we fish; hunt; own pets; work on our vehicles; listen to country music; and read fishing, hunting, and home service magazines. For a treat, we'll eat out at a low-cost family restaurant or a drive-in.

Being as I lived in Evangeline Parish, I'm a little scared of what they have to say

45% Enterprising Professionals
Young, well-educated, ambitious, and hard-working, we're climbing the ladder in STEM occupations and will change jobs often to advance. You can find us in rented condos, townhouses, or apartments in lower density neighborhoods of large metros. Our neighborhoods are diverse; more than 20 percent of the population is Asian. Technology is major for us; we're early adopters of new devices and happy to discuss and advise peers about technology. Trendy clothes and name brands are important purchases; we also shop on Amazon for convenience. Favorite restaurants include The Cheesecake Factory, Chick-fil-A, and Starbucks for coffee. We travel for business; in our spare time, we gamble, visit museums, go to the beach, and watch movies and TV with video on demand via a high-speed connection.


Pretty accurate, except for the nearest Chick-fil-a is about 500 miles away
