Stonemason --
Actually, a bedroom community usually tends to be middle to upper-middle class -- often with expensive houses.
Bedroom communities are usually inhabited by bank executives, lawyers, doctors and other professional white-collar types like them.
Bedroom communities are not places where blue-collar workers typically live.
For example, New Rochelle is a bedroom community for New York City. New Rochelle is a fairly affluent area.
I take it that the term "bedroom community" isn't in the New Zealander lexicon.........
