From the article:

"Since 2000, this "urban draining" has been reversed, largely as a result of migration from beyond national borders."

Is this correct?

For Copenhagen the urban draining ended in the 1980es.

As far as I know most European capitals had a similar development and were growing comfortly in 1990es.

The change coincided with the end of the cold war and the wave of growth, increased global trade and migration that it enabled.



I think the urban draining referred to the inner core of each city, not the entire metro area.
