Does the culture of a city matter in terms of the types of political systems and forms of city government that are needed to operate in metropolitan areas?

Examine two cities in the United States, each city to be drawn from separate metropolitan regions of the country: North, South, East, West. The paper should briefly identify: 1) The demographic, economic, socio-cultural make-up of each city; 2) The form(s) of government that have arisen to govern these cities; 3) The specific challenges, issues, and problems that each city will face in the next 50 years; 4) The demands for change and adaptation that will be required of existing governmental institutions and processes in these cities; and 5) A brief comparison and contrast of the two cities studied in the paper. Overall, the paper should address the following question: Does the culture of a city matter in terms of the types of political systems and forms of city government that are needed to operate in metropolitan areas?
