The Next Smart City Is. . .A Suburb
Two pieces out there on autonomous vehicles and what they mean for suburbs--places like Newark, Ohio--are music to the ears for suburban economic development-minded folks.
Joel Kotkin writes in summation of both pieces: "By one estimate, as much as a trillion dollars of real estate value could swing to locations far from job centers that will become more attractive due to autonomous vehicles."
"Autonomous Cars Are About to Change the Suburbs" is in Forbes.
Medium.com has a piece titled "~$1 Trillion of Real Estate is On The Move. . .Here's Why."
Must reads.
