The flyover states are really where this conversation needs to be focused on, as these are the communities that will first be hit hard.
Small towns that eventually got absorbed into a giant metroplex are not the usual in the country. I think most folks see them as entirely different when it comes to sustainability models/etc.

So the dynamics weren't all that different. And there were basically no significant tech jobs left in the core urban area until about 20 years ago.
