YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In this episode of The Miller Report: Real Clear Journalism, Maggie Miller speaks with investigators Joel Kotkin and Wendell Cox about their latest two-part RealClearInvestigations analysis on America’s new migration. For the first time in more than a century, big-city urban cores are shrinking as families, millennials, and even immigrants look to smaller metros, exurbs, and rural areas for affordable housing, safer streets, and stronger communities. We discuss where this unexpected growth is happening and the path to realizing the American dream. Is this an extension of post-pandemic trends or a long-term change?
