White-collar workers finds a niche in Michigan's job market

The Detriot Free Press reports:
More people moved out of Michigan than moved in from 1995 to 2000. But still, more than 26,000 single, college-educated people from ages 25 to 39 migrated to the area during that period.

The migration is likely to continue, experts say, despite the auto industry's financial struggles and the state's poor economy.

"The auto industry of the future will be a younger and more educated workforce," said David Cole, chairman of the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor. "High-paying jobs for educated workers are not going away."
There's some good news in Michigan.
