Primarily urban precinct, territory of wealthy natives? (6)
I believe the answer is:
uptown
'of wealthy natives?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'primarily urban precinct territory' is the wordplay.
'primarily' suggests taking the first letters.
'territory' becomes 'town' (town is a kind of territory).
The first letters of 'urban precinct' is 'up'.
'up'+'town'='UPTOWN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for uptown that I've seen before include "Residential part of a (US) city" , "US urban residential area" , "Describing the more affluent part (of New York, perhaps)" , "Residential area away from the commercial district" , "Towards the urban centre" .)
