Large migration out of the city to suburbs like Long Island and Jersey. <BR/><BR/>Probably for the same reasons ... gentrification of many areas of the city.Duke Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10372995156231067645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18380739.post-1157084062523554212006-09-01T00:14:00.000-04:002006-09-01T00:14:00.000-04:00I majored in urban issues at a downtown Chicago sc...I majored in urban issues at a downtown Chicago school and many of my in-laws still live in Chicago and the burbs (...at least 7 of whom have become naturalized citizens in the past 10 years). We return a few times per year and the metro area has changed dramatically. My own observations would support the findings of this study. <BR/><BR/>That being said, I was sad to see the statistics about the immigrant decline in Chicago itself. I think the reason for this is the urban renewal (read: tearing down of projects and less desirable neighborhoods to build swank townhomes). <BR/><BR/>History will tell if the displacement of numerous communities was a noble sociological experiment or not. <BR/><BR/>For now, I have my doubts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
