Peoria among fastest-shrinking midsized cities; might COVID change that?Nick Vlahosnvlahos@pjstar.com Peoria among the fastest-shrinking midsized cities "Indirectly, however, COVID-19 might help Peoria regain at least some measure of population growth.
The Peoria area is among the top 30 places to live post-pandemic, according to information Business Insider posted in June. www.pjstar.com/story/news/2020/06/11/peoria-region-is-on-list-of-best-places-to-live-post-pandemic/42759375/
At 28th, Peoria was cited for its low cost of living. Length of job commute and population density also were factors. So was ability to work from home.
If nothing else, COVID has proven a lot of people can work from anywhere, as long as they have a good internet connection.
Longtime Peoria residents are well aware of the city’s faults. Downtown needs revitalization in the worst way. And our racial climate has room for improvement, to put it charitably."(SIC)

On Bing/Microsoft Peoria could fill out or create more content under the bubbles?

A Peoria Facebook Search is less than inviting but some categories do show up.
So would your firm bring its headquarters here? Would you move here for a job and quality of life? Can you look at the housing as a sample?
