“These updated numbers show conclusively that New York City is the center of a great and growing metropolitan region. But until we have better strategies to provide more housing and job opportunities to communities that need them, our growth will also create more challenges of segregation, displacement and mobility. RPA applauds the City for leading these efforts to collaborate with neighboring cities and counties. Working together we can uplift all the residents of the tri-state region,” said Tom Wright, President and CEO, Regional Plan Association.
