This volume addresses the condition of the city from the perspective of the larger metropolitan region. It offers important, thought-provoking perspectives on the structure of metropolitan-level decisionmaking, the disadvantages faced by cities and city residents, and expanding economic opportunity to all residents in a metropolitan area. The book provides data, real-world examples, and analyses in key areas:
-- Distribution of metropolitan populations and what this means for city dwellers, suburbanites, whites, and minorities.
-- How quality of life depends on the spatial structure of a community and how problems are based on inequalities in spatial opportunity -- with a focus on the relationship between taxes and services.
-- The role of the central city today, the rationale for revitalizing central cities, and city-suburban interdependence.
