Based on your previous agrument; http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=140319&page=21, I'd argue that people love to live and work in those areas.

Not scientific only interpreting one of your opinions.
They induced cheap taxes and cheep buildings and jammed people in cubicles. Yes they created the right economic environment to attract businesses, but they have also created an easy target. These areas will have more difficulty competing when all the problems and cheep logic that built them start to tangle.

It seems you are distorting my argument entirely, which I do not appreciate.
