Thanks, Gabe. And I don't think it's SV -> Rural America exclusively. Many of these jobs will filter back into medium to large sized metros across the country.

Thanks, Gabe. And I don't think it's SV -> Rural America exclusively. Many of these jobs will filter back into medium to large sized metros across the country. Places like Columbus, Indianapolis, St Louis, Atlanta, Nashville, etc. . There are scores of talented developers in these areas that would be open to remote work, but not relocation to the major metro areas.

Not to mention eastern Europe, South America, Asia, etc.

Is this what is actually happening? We should look at the statistics as to where people move to. From what I can tell, people are actually mostly moving to other tech hubs (but lower priced) and to high end vacation areas. Think Austin, Denver, Park City Utah, Lake Tahoe, etc... The underlying dynamics are still at play (even tech but to a lesser extent).

  Oh no doubt these areas will see an uptick in jobs... but they won’t be the only ones.
