I think these journalists have to write pieces that have a bit of tension in them just to draw interest. Journalism is a business. That’s why it’s not entirely to be trusted.
Chicago’s strong showing in the $200k (higher rate as a percentage than NY and LA but lower than some smaller big cities) or above category already shows that Greg is wrong in suggesting that people will bail on Chicago in droves once their income is higher

What’s more is, people over the age of 45 usually don’t uproot their lives just for the heck of it. That’s the time of your life when kids are usually in high school, and you’ve already developed your social networks. I’d think the under 30 crowd would be at more risk of leaving. So this assumption that as this group gets older and more successful, they are at risk for leaving, is just complete nonsense.
