I think such a relatively local migration should be considered a win, a spillover of human capital (something I'd like to help Youngstown cultivate).<BR/><BR/>As for Pittsburgh, the out-migration of young talent isn't even an issue, at least right now. But the day when Pittsburgh is combing the world for specific skills isn't too far off. Now would be a good time to establish those talent streams.

And I was struck by how strong and talented that company is -- but also how misplaced that seems for a very mid-west city. <BR/><BR/>As a young person who used to live in the Burgh, there's lots of reasons to flock to bigger cities like San Fran. And very few resource interactive.Ross Popoff-Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16802329861838615986noreply@blogger.com
