Description
Not so fast. Place, argues the great urbanist Richard Florida, is not just important, it’s more important than ever. In reality, choosing a place to live is as important to your happiness as choosing a spouse or career. And a few regions, latest surveys show, actually are happier than others. In Who’s Your City, Creative Class guru Richard Florida reports on this growing body of research that tells us what qualities of cities and towns in fact make people happy—and he explains the best way to use these ideas to make your own choices. This indispensable guide to how people can make a selection where to live and what those choices mean to their lives and their communities is very important reading for everyone from urban planners and mayors to latest graduates.
