I don't think this is at all desirable, but if you substitute "middle class or higher, with a bit of education" this is already the case. Reading for pleasure is not a phenomenon often found in those with low socio-economic status. And while it would be lovely to get this bracket reading more, they have rather a lot of other pathologies that are higher priorities, a number of which you've alluded to in discussing your current neighbourhood.
