40 million Americans move every year. Many times people relocate for a job, or a relationship. Economist Richard Florida has moved 17 times since college. He says finding the right place to live is the most important decision a person can make, more than choosing a career or a partner. So why do people give more thought to buying a car? Richard Florida is the author of The Rise of the Creative Class. His latest book is Who's Your City?: How the Creative Economy is Making Where You Live the Most Important Decision of Your Life. He spoke at Town Hall in Seattle on June 3, 2008. Town Hall Center for Civic Life and University Book Store sponsored the event.
