Haven't cities always driven the US's economic competiveness. When we were a mostly agrarian nation we were also not coincidentally seen as a backwater. It's when we became manufacturing king (with most or all of those factories in cities) that we became the economic powerhouse. And now our competitive advantage is in the service/knowledge economy which still has its base in the city.

tl;dr would this count as surprising to anyone even if they don't read up on urban issues?
