 Previous Message Do people move to the suburb when they have children because they want to or because it just makes the most sense to do so from an affordability perspective. Previous Message
Don't threaten me with a good time. Like my restaurants and my flights, that's a selling point, not a detraction. Does this also mean a larger percentage of us DINKs and DINKWADs with more disposable income not being blown on kids? Because that sounds truly awful too.
Shocking report: People with kids tend to move to the 'burbs or "cities" that are really just overgrown car-centric suburbs (see nearly every city on the plus list). Film at 11. Do you think this is some sort of new trend in Chicago? *looks at laundry list of former Deucers over the past 20 years that lived in Chicago and moved out once they had kids* ..but I'm sure NOW it surely means the city's demise *eyeroll*
