UM: Michigan Census
The Christian Science Monitor reports on the U.S. Census results for Michigan, which is the only state to show a population drop over the past decade. The article quotes UM business professor Gerald Meyers: “The good people are the ones who flee first because they can go, they have talent, they have enough in the way of resources, and they have possibility of finding a job someplace else. It’s the people who are least skilled and who are least educated who have to hang around. They can’t sell their house, they’re just stuck.” [Source]
