Real Estate

The vacancy rate here is 85.1%, which is higher than 99.9% of all U.S. neighborhoods.

Migration / Stability
The freedom of moving to new places versus the comfort of home. How much and how often people move not only can create diverse and worldly neighborhoods, but simultaneously it can produce a loss of intimacy with one's surroundings and a lack of connectedness to one's neighbors.
