[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just turned 31 and have two babies. We bought a historic home with a decent commute in the close in burbs. McMansions are gross. Our next house will be another historic home.[/quote]

That was me ten years ago.  Actually were on our second historic home.  And now we live in a large newer construction home with our 12 and 9 year old and would never go back.  Only the young insist they will never change.[/quote]

Well, you're wrong actually. Lots of old and older people insist they will never change, have never changed, despite decades of evidence to the contrary, and "newer construction" does not necessarily mean "McMansion." I'm not opposed to buying a new home, but neither am I buying some crapshack built to spec by a builder who knows nothing about design and is proud of it. - the 36 year old Millennial[/quote]

If you are 36, you aren't a millennial.  And it seems like all the people on this thread insisting they will never change are young.[/quote]

What you're not taking into account is that change has already occurred.  You have thousands of urban professionals living in parts of the city that 25 years ago professionals wouldn't have set foot in. A definite change has already happened.  Sure, there will be plenty of millennials who end up in the burbs but unlike the 1980s, the burbs aren't the only place for a well off couple to raise kids.  [/quote]
