[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This article answers the question pretty well. Dense “smart growth” in larger cities is losing its allure. America’s Biggest Cities Were Already Losing Their Allure. What Happens Next? https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/19/us/coronavirus-moving-city-future.html[/quote] That's not actually what it says, though. What it actually says is: people with low-wage jobs can't afford to live in expensive places.[/quote] It says that the pandemic is expected to accelerate the move of Millennials away from larger cities to smaller cities and suburbs/exurbs. They have decided that a backyard with space for the kids and a dog is more appealing than vibrant density. This major shift totally changes the conversation around the mayor’s proposed changes to the DC Comprehensive Plan. [/quote]
