Where Americans Are Moving

"More than 10 million Americans moved from one county to another during 2008." This map visualizes the movement to and from Chicago. Black lines represent net inward movement and red lines net outward movement. (Only a few moving between Honolulu and Chicago... I'm one of them!) Check out the whole map and all the counties on Forbes.com here.

Tiniest Apartment Ever.

Check out this article in the New York Post. This couple, with their two cats, lives in a 175 square foot apartment in Manhattan. Can you imagine? The article is really interesting, especially where they describe their habits which allow them to live so small. While I wouldn't be able to live in it, it's interesting to think about getting rid of the excess stuff I don't really need.

In any event, that 175 square feet of air cost $150,000.
