How many "yuppies" have actually moved to Detroit the past couple of years?

If there were a housing shortage, then there wouldn't be such a thing as "undesirable" housing. Obviously the less nice housing is filled in markets when there's a housing shortage, because obviously people have no other choice but to rent the less-than-ideal housing.

Well, the bolded depends on:

1. Who's keeping a tally on the availability of housing. People can cook stats to their liking.

2. The demographic that's looking for housing. Given that's downtown/midtown's "boom" is still in its infancy, the people who are looking for housing don't desire to live in downtown/midtown enough to settle for less than ideal housing just yet.
