People leave Toledo because of schools and crime, eh?

It's not because the burbs are whiter?

Back in 2006, former Toledo mayor Jack Ford wrote:

Current office holders say it is the loss of jobs and poor schools that drive folks away from Toledo. I disagree. I say the main culprit is H2O.

These agreements allowed areas to take virgin farmland, water it and transform it into retail and residential centers.

Since someone working in downtown Toledo can opt to move to Bedford Township and still have only a 15-minute communte down Jackman Rd, why not?

It's greener, it appears newer and we think it is safer. And, for those of us who really are honest, it's whiter!

In 2006, Toledo city councilman Frank Szollosi said about Toledo's population decline:

It's an indication that taxes are too high in Toledo.

We have a list started in no particular order.

• taxes
• services
• schools
• crime
• irresponsible water agreements
• race
