Population loss
It seems lots of people think Harrisburg's population is shrinking, and at least one former Mayoral condidate thinks that's a major problem. But a new report indicates that nationwide, even as citires are losing population and many middle income people move to the exurbs in search of affordable housing, cities are doing just fine. How can that be? It seems that those who are moving into cities are wealthier and have smaller families, and are pushing priced up, forcing larger families and those in the mid-income range out.

Take heart, there is a big annoucement coming tomorrow - I can't say too much, but I've heard on the pretty direct grapevine that something very similar to what happened when your alma mater expanded is happening here, very very soon.
