Research indicated that the segment most favorably disposed to living in the city is young and unmarried without children of moderate income working in the city and currently renting. Future segments are those who might move to the city, if major concerns are addressed. This report compares city residents planning to move in the next five years who will probably or definitely stay in the city with those who plan on moving out of the city. It also compares county residents planning to move in the next five years who will possibly or definitely consider the city as an option with those who will not consider the city. This is an addendum to a previous study.
Survey methodology is explained in the previous study materials.
City residents who will stay view leisure facilities, availability of quality housing, community activities and racial tolerance much more favorably. County residents who will consider the city view community activities, availability of quality housing, racial tolerance, leisure facilities, and parking much more favorably.
