Special mention also needs to go to Columbus, OH, Minneapolis, and Madison, WI.
We need to keep an eye on Columbus. Higher income and young households are growing. That's a good sign for that city's future.
All three of these above cities are beating Atlanta, the darling of sundry internet blogger who clings lazily to population growth stats, and Miami, the darling of those who cling to the illusion of the "elite coastal city" model.
Indianapolis' poor showing here tells a lot as well. Detroit is very sad, and surprising. I always was under the impression that the core of that city was starting to see substantial investment again.
