Logan Jenkin of the San Diego Union wrote in his column: "According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the city of San Diego ranks 10th in the country, with almost 40 percent of its adults boasting college degrees; 30 years ago, the city was just average at about 11 percent."
That's 4 out of 10 San Diegans are college graduates, which is a higher average than the national average.
College graduates typically earn more than non-college graduates, and with the high percentage of grads in this area, there's bound to be a casue/effect relationship.
Logan's piece quotes Professor Richard Florida: "America's most successful cities may increasingly be inhabited by a core of wealthy workers leading highly privileged lives, catered to by an underclass of service workers living in far-off suburbs."
Interesting.
