Nope.  Keep dreamin'.[/quote]

If COVID has shown us anything, it’s that we don’t NEED to live in crowded cities to do our jobs.

The only point to living in the city was being close to the office to spare us a commute. So we put up with the expensive housing, crowded conditions, crime, etc, because at least we weren’t spending two hours in the car every day.

But now? With everyone working mostly from home? Why would ANYONE, especially families, *choose* to live in the city if they didn’t have to?

We have just witnessed the apogee of urban living. It happened in January of 2020. Nowhere to go but down [/quote]

My wife's firm was about to move 800 employees from NoVA into DC. After the triple wammy of covid, BLM, and DC violence increase, they have as of last week told these employees to expect to work from home potentially forever. So, you may not visibly see DC "shrinking" but DC is losing a LOT of potential growth to its mismanagement and poor policies[/quote]
