For The Record

For 60 years, Americans have pushed steadily into the suburbs... But today the pendulum is swinging back toward urban living, and there are many reasons to believe this swing will continue. As it does, many low-density suburbs and McMansion subdivisions, including some that are lovely and affluent today, may become what inner cities became in the 1960s and '70s slums characterized by poverty, crime, and decay.
—Christopher B. Leinberger
