Not every city has a slum, but everybody is certainly not making the same amount of money. You have the richer and poorer people. Even if the city in question is Beverly Hills and the salary range is $50 million to $100 million, there is still the poor part of it.

Beverly Hills is not really a good example - it is part of the massive LA sprawl, packed to the gills with slums.

It is stereotypically rich and fits my purpose as an example. I'm not using facts here, as seen with the salary range suggesting that no one earns under $50,000,000 anually in that joint. If you desire a wealthier area, I suggest Atherton, California, in that situation.

Also, the place where I live doesn't have a slum but we're really a town and not a city.

Christchurch has scummy poor areas, like any other city.

Cambridge doesn't have a slum. Not by my definition of 'slum'. Debate over.
