More than half (55%) would pay higher rent/mortgage to live near transit, with 70% of millennials willing to do so versus 49% of older generations. The desire to live near public transportation has increased for 29% over the past five years.

This document discusses Generation Z, those born between 1996-2009. It notes that Gen Z is very different than prior generations like Millennials in that they are always connected digitally, want anonymous communication, curate their own content, and have little brand loyalty. Gen Z grew up in a post-9/11 recession and are more economically and environmentally conscious as a result. They have shorter attention spans and consume "snack media." The document provides tips for connecting with Gen Z, like telling stories across multiple screens and including social causes they can support.
Regional Snapshot-33N Version-Metro Atlanta Speaks 2019
This document summarizes key findings from the 2019 Metro Atlanta Speaks survey of over 5,400 residents in the Atlanta metropolitan region. The top three findings are:
1. Transportation remains the top concern, with 28% of respondents selecting it as the biggest problem. Support for expanding public transit to address traffic issues remains high at 49%, though willingness to fund it through taxes has declined slightly.
2. While the economy is seen as in generally good shape, 25% would struggle to pay an unexpected $400 expense and there are concerns about inequality and low-income services.
3. Most residents feel their skills are being used in their current job but know less about where to find training for better jobs. Over

The document summarizes key findings from a 2019 survey of metro Atlanta residents about perceptions of life and issues in the region. Some of the main topics covered include transportation remaining the top concern, strong support for expanding public transit but declining support for related tax increases, an economy seen as generally strong but with inequality issues, and neighborhood changes linked to declining housing affordability. Nearly half of respondents favored expanding public transit as the best long-term solution to traffic problems, though support varied by county.

Learn how to set up your team for success by carefully structuring meetings and messages. Explore ways to manage difficult crowds and sticky situations while still building long-term relationships and agency credibility.

Creating Places To Age in New Jersey
There is a significant mismatch in New Jersey between where large numbers of older residents live and which municipalities are most prepared to accommodate them. This report matches every municipality against four age-friendliness indicators, and analyzes the degree to which New Jersey's older residents are living in places that, from a land-use perspective, are not prepared to accommodate their changing needs.

The TRUTH About POLITICS
The document discusses findings from a study on truth and politics. Some key findings include:
- People feel it is difficult to find truth in politics today due to the large amount of information. Politicians are often ranked as the least truthful profession.
- Issues like government spending and taxes are where people are least likely to think politicians tell the truth.
- While people want more truth in politics, some feel it is unrealistic to expect from politicians due to pressures of getting elected.
- When it comes to media, people still rely most on network news but feel the line between facts and opinions is blurred. People seek independent sources.
- There is a desire for changes to the political system or term limits to bring in

NJ Redevelopment Forum 2020 - Hunsinger
AARP works to promote livable communities for people of all ages.

As America ages, more older adults want to remain in their homes and communities for as long as possible. AARP advocates for walkable neighborhoods with a variety of housing, transportation, healthcare and other services to support aging in place. Their initiatives like community challenge grants and age-friendly networks help communities become more livable for residents of all generations.

This document summarizes a forum on fair housing and fair lending hosted by the Kirwan Institute. The agenda included presentations by Kirwan on framing fair housing issues, an opportunity mapping project for King County, and training on affirmatively furthering fair housing. Background research on the subprime lending crisis was discussed, showing its disproportionate impact on communities of color and connection to historical practices like redlining. The Kirwan Institute has commissioned several research projects related to access to fair financial options, community revitalization, and programs responding to the crisis. Issues discussed included overdraft fees, remittances markets, and the impact of foreclosures on rental communities and Native American populations.Rail~Volution 2017 John Martin | Headwinds or Tailwinds?

Millennials (also known as Generation Y, Generation Me and Echo Boomers) are the
demographic cohort following Generation X. There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and ending birth years ranging from the mid-1990s to early 2000s. In August 1993, an Ad Age editorial coined the phrase Generation Y to describe those who were aged 11 or younger as well as the teenagers of the upcoming ten years who were defined as different from Generation X.[4] Since then, the company has sometimes used 1982 as the starting birth
year.[5] According to Horovitz, in 2012, Ad Age "threw in the towel by conceding that Millennials is a better name than Gen Y".

All of the energy that you use to perform daily tasks like exercising, thinking, and staying warm comes from the food that you eat. All of the energy in your food comes from the sun. First, plants convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy through photosynthesis. When animals eat the plants they use the process of cellular respiration to transform this chemical energy into a form their bodies can use. Animals can also get energy from eating other animals, although much of the original energy from the sun has already been used up by the animal which is eaten. In this activity you will determine where you get your food and it turn your energy.Procedure
1. Create a list of food consumed during

2. Label each item as from a producer (plant), a primary consumer (e.g., cow), or secondary or higher consumer (e.g., fish) based on their feeding behavior.
