I think this goes to mikewaters's point.....that swimming is an elitist sport, not an everyday man's sport. I would expect swimming, maybe even some LAX to be popular amongst the youth in your neighborhood.
Walnut Creek isn't exactly a poor area. In fact, every time I go, I am overwhelmed by the outlandish displays of materialism. I can never get out of there fast enough and get back home to South County, where people don't care about that kind of stuff....
