Caught in the Middle

From Site Selector Magazine



A native son with a global perspective delivers a blunt yet optimistic assessment of the Midwest's future as an economic engine.



According to the article, the book is quoted:

"Peoria is doing all the right things."

"There is the feeling there of being
in a place with a future."

That is the kind of quote from a book that we like.

We agree with the quote.

So, please buy the book.

PEORIA - MIGHTY MICRO CITY

PEORIA RANKED NUMBER 16
FOR MIGHTY MICRO CITIES

Next Generation Consulting (NGC): "Young knowledge workers said that where they lived was more important than where they worked. Furthermore, Census figures indicate that from 1990 to 2000, only a handful of cities had a net in-migration of young knowledge workers, while 90 percent of America’s cities suffered a net loss. In other words, cities that can attract and retain these highly mobile young knowledge workers will reap economic gains.
