I predict in 20-30 years the population landscape will be drastically different. More people will move away from larger metros for the South and the Midwest. I read that technology outsourcing will dramatically drop by 2020-2025 which means instead of technology jobs going to Singapore and India they would come back to the US. The problem is Americans want to make money...so how do you achieve this? By sending these jobs to lower cost of living cities ( Cleveland, Detroit, Oklahoma ( its already happening there)

I noticed that and theorized that majority of educated people will migrate to these parts of the US but mainly the Midwest and build them up and vacate the coastal cities to escape the high cost of living there.

These people don't know what they're talking about.

As a NY native I thought we were talking about the culture of NYC since NYC is losing its culture slowly...

To be the next NYC, a city has to have a ton of public goods: multiple large expansive parks, museums, mass transit, city planning for pedestrians to get around by foot, waterfronts, bridges, public wifi, huge financial sectors, multiple top tier colleges, huge media sectors, huge fashion sector, hub for immigrants and tolerance of them etc etc

I don't know if we see another American city like it again. People are too aware and would quickly blow the spot on any city with a low cost and all those public goods and cultural aspects. Detroit makes sense.

I know for a fact some Hedge fund tech firm has a ton of openings in Norman Oklahoma and I when i was in Cincinnati a few weeks ago they are starting to build it up- almost as if they are expecting something to arrive...Deutsche bank is sending jobs to Jacksonville Florida, Barclays is heading to Texas, Goldman is heading to Utah...the evidence is there bruhs

Raleigh NC was the guinea pig and now other companies are following

Agreed. Chicago doesn't fit this and Atlanta definitely does not either.

Atlanta like to sell that it has the busiest airport in the country or world for the matter but neglect to mention that Delta purposely send all their flights through Atlanta first.
