The "Top 10 Cities for Social Mobility, Ranked by Affordability" graph suggests that the affordability drop is extremely sharp, but as we can see from the "Percent of Homes Millennials Can Afford vs. Social Mobility" graph, Absolute Mobility remains fairly steady for a number of cities beyond the top 10 cities. Cutting off at the top 10 makes the affordability vs mobility tradeoff seem more severe than it is.
