This YouTube transcript captures a discussion from the Dole Institute of Politics about the demographic shifts shaping American cities. Patrick Toohey of the Better Cities Project hosts Wendell Cox, a demographics consultant, to explore urban population trends, the definition of “city,” and the impact of suburbanization. They examine historical population changes, the influence of land-use policies and migration patterns, and the potential long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on urban density and transportation. The conversation also touches on economic competition between municipalities and the surprising cost structures of urban versus suburban service provision.
