But do their priorities change after they start having children? Are the cities that are fun for young adults really the places they want to raise children?
Mixed bag. Some leave for the 'burbs. Some stay. Lately more and more have been staying. And yeah, it's where they want to raise kids.
This is an area where cities with reasonaly good public school systems benefit.
I am amazed. You are clueless. The people that get out of Atlanta are the same ones who screwed it up. But then they have a kid, and don't want their kid to be out on the street poppin caps into your honkey ass. I worked with these people for too long. It is whitey's fault that they drink and do crack. I was a foreman and tried to hire some of these guys to walk the power line. Crack is better. I did hire a gang so that when I ran through their neighborhood I would not get mugged. The Atlanta police were supposed to be with me by contract, but I guess they were chickenshit. The gang mom made me and my crew breakfast every morning. Never believe it when the cops break in and the mom says "duh". They know damn well what their sons are doing and they don't mind cleaning your wallet. Who do you think sells your stolen credit cards? The kids?
