except displacement of poverty and displacement of poor people are not precisely the same thing. If someone already living in the suburbs becomes poor, or if someone poor from outside the metro area (or from outside the country) moves to the suburbs, you've got poverty moving to the suburbs, without actual movement of poor people from the city. In PG it may be mostly movement of former DC residents - but in Fairfax I suspect most of the people on food stamps have never lived in an urban jurisdiction in this region.
