But everyone is fleeing to the burbs like their parents?
I'm not saying everyone, and I do see that there are more kids in the inner city now than there were years ago. I just think that as people have kids and generally want more space or other amenities and things in the core become less important they move outward. There is also something to the idea that once your kids hit school and get involved in things wherever you live that you kind of want to stay there.
