Good morning.
Today, weâre starting with a dispatch by Manny Fernandez from Montecito, the edenic Santa Barbara County enclave where â yes, of course, that one â took place:

It was the day after The Interview: Oprah Winfreyâs exclusive sit-down with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Numerous international headlines were generated, but in Montecito â an unincorporated community known as a coastal enclave for the ultrawealthy â it qualified as local news.

Simms correctly predicted Santa Barbara’s population shrinkage. The proportion of the Black community was 1.5% according to the 2000 census and 1.3% in 2010: a 15% drop.
