Quality of life continues to influence relocation

Submitted by acohill on Tue, 09/11/2007 - 07:07

This article from the New York Times (registration required, link may disappear) is an excellent discussion of how quality of life is, more and more, driving relocation decisions not just of businesses but of workers, especially younger workers.

Everywhere I go, smaller towns and communities are worried that young people are not staying and living in their communities, but at the same time, many of these communities are not making the kinds of investments that are going to attract young people. This article identifies some of the things workers looking for a better quality of life want.

Hat to Stuart Mease.
