How 'Snob' Is Defined

Here is how Home Snacks defined snobbiness.

To determine the snobbiest states in America, we had to measure snobby things, based on the number of snobby factors in each metro area. You know, the places where people are wealthy, live in big homes, attend theaters, shop at organic markets, and send their kids to private school. We even measured which states have the most college graduates.

The ranking claims that Colorado is a snobby place to live because the residents here are educated.

Road Snacks says that Colorado is the second most educated state in the country. That, combined with us having lots of rich people and our high home prices, apparently makes us elitist.

Road Snacks even called us "snobby hippies."

Was that really necessary? Not cool.
