I think there is a primary flaw in the assertion that Median wages mean everything. As someone who lives in NYC, I can assure you, the cost of living justifies it.

I do think there is a coastal brain drain, but this article seems to ignore the quality of life and asset based investment that non-coastal cities provide. Interested to hear your thoughts.
