Labor Supply and the "Brain Drain":
From The Brookings Institute (Full Report)
An analysis of the location and migration patterns of younger and older workers, especially those with college degrees, for the 100 most populous metropolitan areas in Census 2000 finds that:
-
The proportion of workers who are young and educated is highest in the Northeast region, followed by the Midwest, the South, and the West.
-
Young and educated workers represent a larger part of the workforce in metropolitan areas with high populations, strong arts scenes, significant international immigration, and large numbers of high-tech jobs.
-
Metro areas that captured the largest number of new 25-to-34- year-old residents between 1990 and 2000 are located almost exclusively in the South and West.
-
Compared to older workers (aged 35-to-64), young workers migrated more often to high-amenity, high-human-capital metropolitan areas during the 1990s.
-
Metropolitan areas in the Northeast have the highest proportions of workers between the ages of 55 and 64.
