Why do very big cities draw single women?Cities are bastions of professional, high-ranking college educated work (with the exception of engineering and science). In turn, the rate of women going to college has outstripped the number of men attending since the 1980s. Basically, while men are looking for nonexistant work that doesn't require a college degree, women are going to college and completing degrees in larger and larger numbers. In addition, the men who do complete college, many of them are much more likely to stay at home (in the suburbs) than to leave. |
