A New American Dream - (but which one?)

Really? It's about time!



The Federal Transit Administration's "Hidden in Plain Sight" shows that within 25 years more and more people will seek out dream homes near public transit stations. Jennifer Dorn nicely outlines the FTA's opinion.

But what about the people flocking to the suburbs? The article is about the Democratic miscalculation of Ohio demographics in the 2004 presidential election, but it suggests another hidden truth - for all those demanding transit-oriented developments, there are equal numbers buying up homes in subdivions accessible only by car.

Who shall win this cultural war?
