Until the work situation is addressed as in more companies returning downtown and into the city, I don't think you will see mass movement towards the city, because at the end of the day the jobs are in the burbs now.
i think the majority of higher paying professional jobs will remain in the cities. money will further be concentrated in cities and lesser paying jobs will migrate outwards. might not be cost effective to maintain a call center in the city but probably is to leave the executives, accountants and legal staff downtown.
