The new American dream. The high-earners move back to the urban core. They bid up the housing there and push the under-employed former (minority) urban dwellers out to the outer burbs over a generation or two.

The ones who have no children do this much more easily, because they don't worry so much about sending their kids to a war zone (aka school) on a bus.
