While the baby boomers helped fortify the notion of the suburban
single-family house as the American dream, the millennials are headed in
another direction, according to Fortune writer Gallagher. The
recession, rising fuel prices, and demographic shifts that mean smaller
families and fewer and later marriages are contributing to a decline in
the appeal of the suburbs. Gallagher points to research and analysis
showing rising populations in urban areas and suburbs who adapt the
ideals of green living and walkable communities. Fascinating reading on
changing trends in how and where we live.--Booklist
