Millennials have captured our imaginaries in recent years. The
conventional wisdom is that this generation of young adults lives
in downtown neighbourhoods near cafes, public transit and other
amenities. Yet, this depiction is rarely unpacked nor
problematized. Despite some commonalities, the Millennial
generation is highly diverse and many face housing affordability
and labour market constraints. Regardless, as the largest
generation following the post-World War II baby boom, Millennials
will surely leave their mark on cities. This book assesses the
impact of Millennials on cities. It asks how the Millennial
generation differs from previous generations in terms of their
labour market experiences, housing outcomes, transportation
decisions, the opportunities available to them, and the constraints
they face. It also explores the urban planning and public policy
implications that arise from these generational shifts. This book
offers a generational lens that faculty, students and other readers
with interest in the fields of urban studies, planning, geography,
economic development, demography, or sociology will find useful in
interpreting contemporary U.S. and Canadian cities. It also
provides guidance to planners and policymakers on how to think
about Millennials in their work and make decisions that will allow
all generations to thrive.
