At the top of Maycoambs heirarchy are the lawers aand judges, for example Atticus and judge Taylor. Next would be people in a middle class situation like Miss.Muadie who si not poor or rich but well known and respected. Then there is the lower class with people like the Ewll's who live in a junk yard and have been on wellfare for many years. Last are the negros like Tom Robinson who live in certain communties away from the whites.
The Hierarchy is race related. THE BLACKS are treated bad no matter what. The Whie people are higher p in the socail standing no matter if they are poor or rich. As long as they are white.
Social hierarchy in Maycomb, Alabama is mostly made up of families who have been in the town for years and the town is more of a white person town so most of the Maycomb people are races. The blacks are most poor and treated the worst all because of their skin tone. there's only a few classes such as people like the finches, then the nice but poor families such as the Cunninghams, families like the Ewells, and then they have the blacks as one class and their the lowest class.
The social hierarchy in Maycomb,Alabama is very racist. Whites come first, then blacks, and then mixed. They all say mixed people fit in nowhere because nobody wants them. Whites don't want them because they have black in them, blacks don't want them because they have white in them.
The social hierarchy in Maycomb, Alabama was basically based solely on race. If you were black, you weren't accepted or valued and the same went for people who stood up for blacks. Most whites back then saw blacks as people who mean nothing and won't amount to anything.
The social hierarchy in Maycomb is racist and based on who your are. If you are successful and an old family, you are at the top. If you have lived in town for years or youare white, you are ranked high. If you are poor and an old family, you are near the middle.f you are poor and cause problems, you're at the bottom. And if you are black, you are considered the lowest. According to the people of Maycomb, everyone has a place and it is based on who you are.
AS far as race goes, there is a social heirarchy but as far as lifestyle and money goes there isn't. Just like many towns in the 1930's, blacks were low class and whites were high. Most of the the town, though, was poor and got by doing what they always do (ex. the cunningham's farming) so no one was considered better for the amount of money or what kind of job they had.
Dolphus Raymond seems to have chosen his place in the social order by choosing to live among the black population of Maycomb. His opinion is "...the hell with 'em. I don't care if they don't like it." (pg 200) Why haven't more people followed in Mr. Raymond's footsteps?
The social hierarchy of Maycomb, Alabama is very simple. The whites are put first in any situation unless you're Atticus. Next is the prestige of your name, after that then comes the blacks. The very least would be the half breeds.
the social hierachy of Maycomb is very simple. the whites come first, they are sorted by the rank of there last name. then the african americans are always last.
The social hierarchy in 1930 in Maycomb, Alabama, was that the whites and blacks weren't seen as equals. The white people were higher up and the black people were a lot lower. If a black person did something he got punished for it even if it wasn't a bad thing. If a white person did the same thing people would just go on with their lives like nothing ever happened. Kind of like what happened to Tom Robinson.
Society in a town such as Maycomb is pretty secluded. Due to the seclusion, the heirarchy is first judged by your race then by your name. For example: If your white, your above a black man, but if your say an Ewell, your lower than a Finch.
There is no doubt that there is questioning of social status within Maycomb, with some who may be at the top like the Finches and other may be left further away from society like the Cunninghams. The Finches being higher up because they have a lawyers income and the Cunninghams closer to the bottom on social status being poor farmers.
The social hierarchy of Maycomb, Alabama has 3 levels. At the top are the "White" people. In the middle are the African Americans, and at the very bottom are the "halfbreeds". This is because "halfbreeds" aren't accepted by "white" people or African Americans, therefore they are the worst. The basis of this hierarchy is simply race, not wealth, family, or occupation, just...race.

If Atticus is well respected in town, then why do the people of Maycomb begin to treat him like an outsider.

When a city and its state appear in the middle of a sentence, two commas are required: one after the city and one after the state.
Example: The class divisions in 1930s Maycomb, Alabama, are very distinct.
