I really don't have the time to go granular but Hartford and New Britain and it's immediate inner ring grew as the hinterland shrunk... Same thing with New Haven/West Have and Waterbury. CT's population is concentrating in areas where neighborhood density was already some of the highest in the nation.

What is the hinterland?

Sounds like our cities are seeing greater interest - we should redevelop them so they’re actually attractive to talent and to employers

Exurb/Semi-rural. And if we're considering the urban inner ring municipalities I absolutely agree
