Who's Your City? How the Creative Economy Is Making Where to Live the Most Important Decision of Your Life by Richard Florida
3.0
Florida challenges the assumption that in this internet age, it doesn't matter where we live, since so many of us can work from anywhere. He says that simply isn't true, because the synergistic effects of likeminded people coming together to live, work, and play are huge and have far-reaching implications.
3 crucial decisions we all have to make are what we're going to do with our lives, who we're going to do it with, and where we're going to do it. Florida says we don't devote nearly enough energy to this this third decision of "where" and seeks to give us the reasons we should pay more attention to our place, and the factors we should consider when deciding which location we're going to choose to reside in.
I thought the topic sounded fascinating, but I found the book to be dry and a little disjointed.
