    "Financial elites" have no marketable skills that they can take on the road and hang out a shingle anywhere.

    Education is extremely important.

      For the USA as a whole, it would probably be better if the financial elites spread out to more parts of the country than to densely concentrate in just a few metropolitan areas.

      May be Ms. Hannah Cox and @Jolly prefer to have all the rich people just stay in NYC. I would love to hear their rationale for this.

        Rich people move in to the suburbs and prices soar.

        Then the poor people have to move to NYC to find affordable slums.

          Don't blame others when you do not make your point clearly, if you actually have a point.
          Go ahead and clarify your point (if you have one), I shall attempt to address that point directly.

            No, Ax. You misunderstand so thoroughly and so often, you have become an inside joke. I've even seen you used as a verb.

            Carry on.

              Hey wait a second. When Rainman and I ask you to address points directly, you never do. Why do you give preferential treatment to Jolly? This is an outrage.

                  On top of these challenges is just how overworked movers are. “It’s nuts out there,” Mr. Grigor said. “There is double the volume of customers — maybe more — than last year.”

                  While the moving industry is fractured among numerous small business owners, and official statistics are tough to come by, one thing is clear: From professionals who are downsizing following a job loss, to students moving back in with their parents, to families fleeing the city for the suburbs, New Yorkers are changing their addresses in droves.

                  According to FlatRate Moving, the number of moves it has done has increased more than 46 percent between March 15 and August 15, compared with the same period last year. The number of those moving outside of New York City is up 50 percent — including a nearly 232 percent increase to Dutchess County and 116 percent increase to Ulster County in the Hudson Valley.

                  “It felt like move-out day on a college campus,” said Bobby DelGreco, who recently vacated his apartment in Stuyvesant Town after nine years and is now living in a long-term Airbnb in Los Angeles. “All the doors were propped open, and there were moving trucks and furniture everywhere.”

                  The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    @George-K

                    50% greater moves actually doesn't sound like very much.

                    How many people move out of NYC in a given year? 2%, 3% of the population (just guessing).

                    This would mean 2-3% goes up to something like 3-4.5%.

                    The hardest hit (and one of the densest cities) - was obviously going to cause a good amount of flight.
