Stories like these are great to look for what the author is omitting and what propaganda is being pushed. "Residents in suburbs, who tend to be over 30 with children, said they live there because of the cost, size and type of their housing, to be close to good schools,and because of the safety and security of the neighbourhood." The city infrastructure, the very things it is supposed to do, is inadequate for its citizens needs: it cannot provide good schools, safety, or security. I would like to note that this article is not the usual puff piece from Citylab and this documents with further evidence a common theme that we all know: a. young: live the hipster lifestyle in the city b. mid-age: live the family lifestyle in the suburbs c. old-age: live the retirement lifestyle in the country.
