Anyone want to start a city with me? Find some overlooked land near decent water and with good fiber and explicitly build out with unregulated zoning and minimal city planning. City only owns utilities and emergency services. Municipal fiber. A remote work hub.
I have no idea how but willing to figure it out as we go. The idea has been crossing my mind more and more frequently of late.

- pomian 6y agoGreat idea! So many nice communities across the country. I often wonder why more companies don't just take over - giving their employees quality of life options.
