[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Some of what you say is probably correct, but your implied premise is that the best are those living in the city. Probably false. [/quote]

I dont mean to say people who live in cities are the best and I dont want to start a debate about that. What I mean to say that younger people and Millenials mostly live in the city and want to live car-free. You are cutting yourself from a broad demographics, and I do not see the value of an off-metro location. Reducing cars on the road benefits everyone including those who drive to work.

My theory is that these companies are run by old school execs who have not adapted to the new car-free generation.

You say that but every young family I know owns a car. Sometimes two.  You have to accept that younger people and millennials might just want things you don't suspect. Or they don't mind NOT living in a city and driving. Or they actually prefer it.  Or NG has no trouble filling vacancies and as such, sees no need to change anything. You may not see the value in an off-metro location, but what do they care? It works for them and their workforce.[/quote]
