[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3144104, member: 3099"] See now this is a problem, at least for some of us. The standard today that our city leaders grade themselves by is bringing in as many people as possible. Doesn't matter where they come from, or why, as long as they come. They consider that success. To some of us, we like the sleepy little towns and the flyover state environment. There are tons of large metropolitan areas we could move to if we chose to. Our measure of success is just a bit different and the mantra of [I]"a need for cities to attract folks" [/I]gets old real fast. We'd like to have a bunch of folks leave actually. [/QUOTE]
