I dispute everything.
Call me a contrarian. Sure, wealth gravitates to the citys but so does poverty and restriction.
I would argue that people are fleeing urban centers looking for economic futures too.
There are millions of us that have been displaced in the past 35 years as city’s collapsed.
The movement as a whole is towards the city and that is true all over the world. The extreme examples are South America and Mexico City.
What is called poverty in this country is anything but.
