Population Shifting from Suburbs to Cities


New data released by the Census Bureau finds population growth has been shifting toward the country’s 381 metro areas, especially since the economic recovery began in 2010. USA Today says the growth is being driven by young professionals and retiring baby boomers who prefer to live in the city. Another factor is young people delaying or deciding not to have children, which often leads to a move to the suburbs.
