This implies that "talent" is indeed flocking to Chicago while it sheds it's industrial past. "Combined with other data, the continuing tale-of-two-cities story suggests large numbers of lower-income African-Americans are fleeing Chicago while somewhat lesser numbers of better-educated and higher-earning whites, Asian-Americans and blacks are coming in. That's leaving the city better off in some ways than it was a decade ago, but smaller." https://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20171004/BLOGS02/171009951/chicago-census-data-show-shrinking-city-growing-wealthier-educated https://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20171004/BLOGS02/171...
