Renters on the Right Path as Suburbs Lose Momentum

Renters might want to take another look at this economic downturn. Why? Well, it could signal some really big changes in the way Americans live. In fact, renters may be at the forefront of massive lifestyle changes.

Urban-studies theorist Richard Florida has a few ideas about what this economic downturn could mean and is exploring them in an eight-part video series about the future of American cities on The Atlantic website. Florida's views mirror the ideas in his new book, The Great Reset. (The theorist's articles and videos are a small portion of the Atlantic's mini-site called The Future of the City.)
