Poor people of any color aren't moving to Clarksville or River Hill. Everyone of my parents neighbors are doctors or better in terms of salary off Folly Quarter Rd. There's also going to be no affordable housing built anytime soon.

Sure, but why is that? Virtually the only homes in River Hill are large SFHs that are at least 20 years newer than most of the rest of Columbia. Plus a small pocket of condos and townhomes near the village center. The housing mix and zoning are first and foremost what causes this. Clarksville is going to do whatever since they are much more hands off, but River Hill is a village in Columbia that doesn’t really abide by Columbia values.
