You can undercut your employees, your team, sacrifice the culture in order to drive more profit but ultimately you will pay through employee turnovers, slow productivity and conflict management which costs MORE money to fix.Friends, remember this… It ALWAYS costs more to react to problems than to prevent problems early on.

Also, why do you think the work force isn't diverse?  

Diversication might mean dilluded returns unless located accordingly.

Showing your children other cultures and teaching them the concept of being a world citizen builds compassion and understanding.

It's definitely a culture shock.

Second, if the person understands their asset, the community, the culture and the tenants they are able to operate and make tons of cash which is very much a good thing.

My Remodeling company is small but diverse.

The school there (Catoctin) isn't bad but isn't diverse - they usually have a good football team though lol

Born and raised in San Diego I'm sure the weather will be a complete culture shock but I'm ready for it!

As some ofyou mentioned, diversity is probably the way to go.
