For Nearly Half of America, Grass Is Greener Somewhere Else
January 30th, 2009
Where would Americans most like to live — and how do they feel about the place they currently call home?
A new national survey by the Pew Research Center’s Social & Demographic Trends project finds that nearly half (46%) of the public would rather live in a different type of community from the one they’re living in now — a sentiment that is most prevalent among city dwellers. When asked about specific metropolitan areas where they would like to live, respondents rank Denver, San Diego and Seattle at the top of a list of 30 cities, and Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati at the bottom.
Dallas ranks 16th, and I wonder what makes it so appealing? I love the area, but I don’t know what makes it stick out.
