Did you know?

Contrary to popular belief, young professionals do not relocate solely on quality job availability. Two thirds of Americans ages 25 through 34 say they're deciding first where they want to put down roots, and then looking for a job in that place, according to a report by CEOs for Cities, a national network of urban leaders.
