I certainly agree with his point. I can understand why young people flock to cities, but I cannot understand why they stay in them. With remote work opportunities and fiber optic communications, the cost of living advantage of living in small towns is very compelling at today’s price points.
American businesses should outsource work to rural America. Real estate is crazy cheap in American towns, and an exodus is overdue from Brooklyn to Bettendorf
When you are young, the cities are where it’s at. The country is dullsville. When you get older, the opposite becomes true. 🙂
Strickly depends on where you are. Sure not cheap around here and small acreage is scarce.
What planet do you live on?
“Real estate is crazy cheap in American towns”
That was true until about 2018 or 2019. All over the US, locals are squeezed out with soaring real estate prices. Real estate has almost tripled here in North Idaho in that time frame. The paper and NextDoor app are full of people bemoaning the lack of affordable housing.
