Thst's exactly how I feel about this study. It's missing a lot of details.
It would be a lot more useful if it showed the growth amongst those who are college educated between the ages of 25 and 34 [[prime working years for millennials). Without that information, the study is extremely flawed, because I find it very hard to believe Detroit is seeing biggers gains of people who are young/skilled/educated than cities [[Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, etc.) who have a bigger corporate presence, a more diverse economy and a larger availability of professional jobs.
And with all due respect, while I don't doubt your personal experience, it is merely anecdotal and not the same as empirical evidence.
All I'm doing is providing constructive criticism about the study cited in the OP, as it should be taken with a grain of salt.
