Millennials have their eye on D.C.
Young, college-educated people are most attracted to D.C. as a place to live after graduation, according to Business Insider. D.C. topped the list of large cities ranked for criteria like a high population of college educated people, low unemployment and how easy it is to travel the city without a car.
Cities considered for the study, conducted by the American Institute for Economic Research, were required to have more than 1 million people in its metro area. Other criteria included in the rankings were average salary, rent and ethnic and racial diversity.
San Francisco, Boston, San Jose, Calif. and New York rounded out the top five cities.
A report by the New York Times earlier this month found that D.C. was ranked “pretty bad” for income mobility. And another report found that more people are moving out of the District than are moving in for the first time in at least four years.
