Educated Millennials Are a Good Problem for U.S. Cities - Bloomberg

Educated Millennials Are a Good Problem for U.S. Cities - Bloomberg



...I should note that among the Northeastern and Midwestern cities on this list, only Boston is actually experiencing significant (10.9% since 2010) overall population growth, so it’s not so much that young college graduates are flocking to those places in massive numbers as that this group is growing somewhat while the rest of the population holds steady or shrinks. Still, it’s a good group to have around: Concentrations of young, skilled workers help struggling cities pay their bills now (by generating tax revenue while not placing big demands on city services) and can be a harbinger of economic growth to come.
