gross value added per capita is 7x higher in London than the next highest city (Manchester)
financial crisis -> rest of country falling behind London even more, rise of nationalist identities partly due to this?
rural-urban divide: those in cities tend to know fewer people but higher aggregate status
ranking by social/economic/cultural capital validates our preconceptions of certain areas, mostly in London, as "top"
