As linked by Fort Worth Report this morning, Culturemap reports "Dallas-Fort Worth no longer a top-25 place to live, declares U.S. News & World Report"; the article explains that between 2020 and 2021 DFW tumbled 13 spots to #37, previously #24. Importantly, it also explains that in 2020 U.S. News ranked the top 125 metros, but in 2021 they ranked the top 150 metros. So, something I need to do after I wake up is figure out whether DFW fell 13 spots because of declining fundamentals, or DFW was just (unfairly?) displaced by 13 of the 25 newcomers to the ranking!
