I can imagine this incentivizing semi-rural living. Cheap house, low COL, steady income.

  Indeed. I regularly burn around $1k/mo when living simply in a cabin on my rural California property, with property taxes under $500/yr. There's a lot of rural California. The combination of modern tech enabling comfortable and connected off-grid living and UBI opens up pretty much all of it for residence, as long as there's a grocery store accessible.

  It'd be a great business opportunity, to provide resources for turn-key homesteading. (It'd probably work best at the level of small communes, rather than individuals.)

  Depending on the area, that’s not something to encourage. There are a lot of people living in places where humans really shouldn’t be living due to the fire risk
