Boston in Decline

Boston is longer a top 20 city in America.It's clearly in decline.Joan Vennochi dares to bring up some unpleasant true facts:
For all the good intentions and genuine hard work aimed at improving Boston schools, families with young children still decamp to the suburbs.

For all the attention paid to boutique hotels and luxury condo plans, average working people cannot afford to live in the city. A circle of insiders controls development; the entire Fenway neighborhood may be quietly transformed according to the will of the owners of the Boston Red Sox, at partial cost to taxpayers.
They just don't like middle income people in Boston.
