What Richard Florida misunderstood about why people spend their lives in places like Ohio
Before I moved to Ohio, I might have agreed with Richard Florida’s recent posts on the part of America that's "stuck." He wrote that:
The mobile, Florida writes, live and move along both coasts and in the Rocky Mountain region. The stuck remain in a belt that extends across the middle of the country and into the South. I grew up in Silicon Valley, a highly mobile region, and spent my college and post-graduate years in Chicago, which, even though it’s located in the Stuck Belt, likely qualifies as a mobile city.
