Teenagers vs. the suburbs | IN 60 SECONDS
To many young Americans, suburbs are boring, economically stagnant, socially monolithic places filled with Republicans. But data from AEI's Survey on Community and Society shows that suburbs are actually politically diverse places where younger Americans have vibrant social lives and dynamic economic opportunities. 21% of suburbanites are liberal, and 16% are conservative. Most suburbanites fall in the middle of the ideological spectrum. 85% of 18- to 29-year-olds who live in the suburbs say that they are living in a good or excellent place. In contrast, only 70% of younger urbanites rate their cities as good or excellent places to live. Young suburbanites are also more likely to regularly talk to their neighbors, compared to those in cities. And when it comes to the economy, the attitudes of younger Americans toward their finances and career are as bullish in the suburbs as they are in the cities. The data is clear: Younger Americans thrive socially and economically in suburbs, which offerspace, safety, convenience and political diversity.Would you like to live in an urban, suburban, or rural area?
