At a luncheon in early March, the Downtown Alliance hosted Rebecca Ryan, author of “Live First, Work Second.” The fine folks at Texas Public Radio recorded the speech and have made it available on their website.
In her speech, Ryan stresses the importance of creating a city that young people get homesick for. That for the next generation, where you live is more important than what you do for a living. She also summarizes characteristics of these cities, like, for example, housing at different price points and a diverse population.
