Scary article for those that love cities. This woeful article almost sounds like a new "Dark Ages" is emerging. During the "Dark Ages" after the fall of Rome, the population of most cities in western Europe fell dramatically. Rome itself went from perhaps 500,000 to 50,000 as crime and central authority and things in general just went to pieces. Hopefully the article will turn out to be overly gloomy.
