Young adults are leaving DEMOCRAT states, not because it's New England.

That's what's scares me - - that these young adults are taking their parents' Democrat voting habits with them and fouling other states the way their parents fouled the states they're running from.

New Hampshire is predominately republican and has the same problem. You could argue that they are all "New England republicans", or find an alternative theory. Such as the winters in New England.

I suspect the biggest reason is the cost of housing is so high that beginning wage earners can't make it.

They are simply adding more new liberals to conservative areas is all they are doing.

Perhaps. The specific issue in the Boston area is that the housing is unaffordable unless you live about 4 to a house (number of earners). Roommate living gets stale when you are 30...

To see similar improvement in New England, several overlooked New England cities "need to think of more cultural amenities, such as music and clubs, to make themselves more attractive," Gittel said. ( from the article)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This idiot thinks its because of music and clubs? Gittle is an idiot.

Please leave for JOBS! Businesses create jobs. Please move to work at a job,,,,and,,,guess what? Clubs and restaurants are built to serve the people working in those jobs.

Lower taxation on businesses and people. Get rid of socialism ( Democrat Marxists) and businesses grow. People move in, and the night life flourishes.

The whole "leaving the Northeast" thing is about taxation and the fact that the unions have killed off all big business.
Nobody wants to leave their parents behind, but there are no jobs and the taxes are too high.
Make the NE business friendly and back off on the taxation and people will stay.
