Out of the top 100 metro areas, Dallas ranks 4th in population and 75th in the percentage of people living alone. I am trying to grapple with the socioeconomic implications of this discovery.

You can find this and other interesting stats in the “State of Metropolitan America” report from the Brookings Institution. Explore, report, and speculate.
