What Will America Look Like in 2050?

Urban or suburban, what will the U.S. look like in forty years? On the next Your Call we'll be joined by Joel Kotkin, author of the new book The Next Hundred Million: America in 2050. Kotkin celebrates a vision of the country that looks increasingly more like the suburbs of Los Angeles and less like San Francisco or New York. He argues that significant increases in population and sprawling development will make America, "the most affluent, culturally rich, and successful nation in human history." Where do you see yourself living over the coming decades -- the city, the country, or somewhere in between?
