A Superiority Complex is the belief that one holds some value (societal or monetary) over another and acts as if they were born from a golden womb. Superiority Complexes are often seen in low-income neighborhoods when a member of the community gains more capital than their neighbors, and is most commonly associated with upper-middle and 'upper' class members of society.
