Semi-chic

A sidebar column in the July 29, 2013 issue of The New Yorker,  begins:

If there’s any evidence (besides rising real-estate prices, of course) for the Hudson Valley’s new semi-chic status, it’s Bard SummerScape, the annual performing-arts cavalcade that Leon Botstein, the president of Bard College, has commanded since 2002.

 One supposes we are, by virtue of proximity, also semi-chic.
