The growth of cities in the Fourth District

Timothy Dunne

Economic Commentary, 2007, issue Aug

Abstract: Many Fourth District cities have experienced relatively weak population growth over the past half century. One possible reason some cities have recently grown more is because they have better educated workforces. Recent research suggests that the educational attainment of residents is critical to population growth, particularly for cities in the Northeast and Midwest.
