In a nut shell …
In Mayor A C Wharton’s City of Choice presentation last week, he presented two population maps. The first was population distribution in 1960, and each dot represents 300 people. (This map was actually created for a Memphis Flyer story on I-269 and the cost of urban sprawl.)
“You can see it’s clustered in the core city,” Wharton said. “Service delivery wasn’t that difficult.”
The second was population distribution in 2000.
