Urban America: US cities in the global economy by James Manyika, Jaana Remes, Richard Dobbs, Javier Orellana and Fabian Schaer (04/2012). “In this report, MGI, the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, puts US urban growth prospects into a global context as part of our continuing work on global urbanization and on US growth and renewal. We compare the economic weight of US large cities with the urban centers of other developed regions, describe GDP growth patterns across US urban centers over the past few decades, and highlight the key challenges and opportunities for US urban regions as they plot their course through to economic recovery.”
