The Creativity Wasteland

Posted by anewphilosophy Posted on: 09/09/09

The Creativity Wasteland

I just had to share this with everyone who has ever lived in Youngstown, OH:

Go to this article. Now, scroll down until you see the chart entitled "Medium-Size Cities' Creativity Rankings." Now look at the city that is ranked lowest on creativity and diversity in the ENTIRE UNITED STATES.

That's right— out of all the crappy, medium-sized cities in America, the LEAST CREATIVE is Youngstown, OH. And it's not like it was a close finish, either— we lost this race by a wide margin, guys.

Even Scranton beat us soundly. Now that's pathetic.

Do you see why I had to leave Youngstown? DO YOU SEE?!
