Remote work will continue to rise in popularity. Many large companies already have policies of every meeting having a video conference link. And there's pressure for people to move out of high cost of living areas like San Francisco and New York City.
Online degrees will explode in popularity much like cord cutting did in the past decade. With Georgia Tech's OMSCS becoming a huge success, many other institutions will create similar programs beginning with STEM degrees, expanding into more graduate programs and even undergrad. As an alternative to ultra-high tuition costs, more and more students will choose this route instead of traditional college. As a result, kids will stay at home with their parents increasingly longer.
The United States and China will relax their tourist visa policies, and will allow for up to 90 day stays without a visa.

There was a bit of a rise and fall (thanks Marissa Mayer!) of remote work in the last decade but it seems to be trending upward again. I work remotely now, but lack of wide-spread availability makes me anxious to move outside of suburban areas in the event something goes wrong and I don't have a local fallback.
