odd title, the word 'superstar' is used once outside of the title by an MIT economist proposing federal subsidies for cities/towns with research universities. no mention of NYC, Boston, nor do they appear on the infographic. so it seems so called superstar cities aren't really defined as i would expect them to be. |

Yea, the metric used here is rather convoluted, it's ranking cities by how much their share of total national employment increased. This is going to favor cities that experienced population growth and discount cities that are long since 'at capacity' like NY / Boston.
