Percentage of college-educated millennials among the total millennial population: 58%
Boston and Madison — two metro areas with several universities — have lured college graduates more than other cities in the US.
In the analysis, Frey adds that many other American metros have relatively high shares of college-educated millennials.
"While a great deal of attention is given to the highly educated millennials in those areas, the fact is that older millennials in 60 of the 100 metropolitan areas have college graduate percentages ranging between 30% to 45%," he wrote.
