Ed Morrison · Brookings: The State of Metropolitan America
May 10th, 2010
Brookings has released the latest version of its State of Metropolitan America. You can download it from this page.
“A new image of urban America is in the making,” said William H. Frey, a demographer at Brookings who co-wrote the report. “What used to be white flight to the suburbs is turning into ‘bright flight’ to cities that have become magnets for aspiring young adults who see access to knowledge-based jobs, public transportation and a new city ambiance as an attraction.”
You can download data on the Cleveland metro from this page.
