Chicago is what it is because of suburbs. Same for any big city.

That's cute. I just dropped into the forum for Olympic reaction and find you spouting the same tripe all over the place.

The fact that Austin is on that list shows how out of touch WSJ is today. College grads aren't staying like they used to and instead are moving to Houston, Dallas and even San Antonio. I imagine Houston doesn't get much respect due to the fact that most of the young professionals that move here are "squares" i.e. engineers, chemists etc. And Chicago 10th? That has to be a reflection of the midwest I would think. How in the heck can it be ranked so low?

Question is, could Chicago have been rated higher?
What's a "magnet city?" As in "chick magnet survey?" Dude, awsome!

Another highly useful expenditure of resources by our quality national media. I'm absolutely stunned that a nation of our intelligence and intellect did not get the Olympics.
