Mega commuters mega gentrifying Rust Belt cities at Pacific Standard magazine.
Theme: Economic convergence of innovation and the rise of the flat world class.
Subject Article: "Paris: the affordable London suburb."
Other Links: 1. "Megacommuters: 600,000 in U.S. Travel 90 Minutes and 50 Miles to Work, and 10.8 Million Travel an Hour Each Way, Census Bureau Reports."

4. "Why New Yorkers Are Moving to Philly and What It Means for Our City."
5. "Decline Of Chicago."
Postscript: I've seen ample evidence of NYC mega gentrifying urban neighborhoods in other metros. Wondering if Chicago is having a similar effect in that neck of the woods. St. Louis? Indianapolis? Des Moines? Milwaukee? Minneapolis?
