Tallahassee is improving,
too...
What this study calls "segregation" may more accurately be a
depiction of growth or improvement, at least in the case of
Tallahassee.
The Tallahassee Metro Area has, and still faces, higher than average
rates of poverty.
Our counties, cities, and residents have been working hard to reverse
this trend, and we're making progress.
Part of that progress means growing and adapting... and these efforts
bring their own challenges.
Part of that progress also means succeeding, but that happens in
stages.
Tallahassee is improving,
too...
In 2012, Tallahassee was noted for
being among the nations best
midsized cities for job growth.
In that same year, Tallahassee was
listed among the 10 best cities for
millennials, praised for its
accessibility to housing and
education.
