Yes to the latter but no to the former.
If you live on the Gatineau side low-brow areas are never that far away, and while my immediate neighbourhood is definitely upper middle class, there is social housing one km or less from us, and quite large, solidly working class areas not much further away.
Within 2, 3 and 4 km radii from my house, working class populations are likely in the majority.
On the Quebec side of the river we don't have gigantic areas of 100,000+ people that are almost all at least middle and often upper middle class like Kanata, Orleans and Barrhaven.
