00 This term should be very common but I wasnt able to find it. Well. What is the meaning of "Urban flight". Eg. 02 br
02 br
00 The city’s situation... –it is said that the urban flight there actually preserved its 1920’s architecture; had the city thrived, new constructions would have replaced the old ones. 02 br
02 br
00 Or... 02 br
02 br
00 But escape from the inner city is a highly selective enterprise. It is an option open mostly to the right half of the bell curve. Consequently, urban flight creates a cognitive discontinuity where the city meets the suburbs. Left behind in the city is a human residue wanting in human capital. Unemployment, welfare dependency, drug addiction, coarseness and incivility are its hallmarks, low IQ its nub. Below we characterize the discontinuity, closely estimating mean IQs of inner-city and suburban dwellers, black and white. 02 br
