During the past two decades, most large American cities have lost population, yet some have continued to grow. Does this trend foreshadow the “death" of our largest cities? Or is urban decline a temporary phenomenon likely to be reversed by high energy costs? This ambitious book tackles these questions by analyzing the nature and extent of urban decline and growth of large US cities.
