Governing.com‘s Otis White (still not this guy) has pointed on August 30 and August 22 to the trend of people living downtown and working in the suburbs, further fracturing the foundations of the faddish Florida fallacy.
(Ok, that was excessive alliteration.) Another interesting fact is that
cities and suburbs are both getting more diverse as non-Hispanic whites
move downtown and minorities move to the suburbs. Otis says cities are
getting less diverse, but white folk in Oakland, CA, actually make the
city more diverse.
