They put mansions, moderately priced single family homes, and low income housing all not to far from each other. And then by having school systems set up by district you get everyone to mingle.
Basically my point is most people where I'm from wouldn't be offended by this if it took place at our school just because of how everyone grew up. It just depends on who you ask and what their take on things is.

Even "planned cities" (all cities are "planned" but I know what you mean) have these issues. The issues are just more hidden.
