Dialogue about the future of the Sarasota-Bradenton region has focused on the role young professionals play in our economy, culture, policies, philanthropy and business. Our two SB2 Rumble teams look more closely at attainable housing, job availability, wages, quality of life, noise ordinances, support networks for young professionals and political engagement in debating whether our region has failed to successfully attract, engage and retain Millennials.
