Americans are on the move again, this time from exurb and suburb to downtown, not only where you might expect it -- San Francisco -- but also where you wouldn't: Cleveland's most central censustracts added 20% to their population from 2000 to 2010.
The resulting increase in the supply of mortgage credit likely contributed to the rise in the homeownership rate from 64 percent in 1994 to about 68 percent now with minority households and households from lower-income censustracts recording some of the largest gains in percentage terms.
