Next stop, Reloville

Download

While moving for a job is nothing new, the competitive global economy is creating a greater number of Relos, workers and their families who relocate frequently for work. Typically well-paid, Relos take homes in suburban communities and usually stay no longer than three to four years before moving on to another placement. In his book "Next Stop, Reloville", reporter Peter T. Kilborn examines this class of people who lack ties to any place. He joins Larry Mantle to discuss the Relos phenomenon and how it is affecting families and communities across the country.
