Will the U.S. soon see another major rebalance of its population? Many populous areas within the country are experiencing flooding, drought, and impacts to agriculture. At what point will residents decide to move to a region that is may be more insulated from these challenges?
The Great Lakes Region, and cities such as Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Chicago, and Buffalo are poised to benefit from the migration, should it occur. These areas, once former economic centers for the nation, could be the sites for the next economic and real estate boom.

FL residents can adapt and learn to breathe under water. Their leaders want nothing to do with science so I'm sure they have ideas of how to deal with what's coming.
Great video and good explanation!
I live in CT. We had a very mild winter and it looks and feels like April. The northeast in general is putting a lot into infrastructure, abet not enough, but at least recognize the problems. Also, the northeast cleaned up a lot, and wildlife sensitive to pollution is coming back.
No one cares about climate change. Who is making up this idiocy? People want to live in areas with low crime and decent schools. Whoa!!
They have too many train derailments
You mean the rust belt? No way they trashed that area and abandoned it. You can’t even eat the fish if you ever want to be able to have children in the future. Too many forever chemicals.
