To me, the key component of remote work is that I can choose where to live according to the needs of my family. If I need to come in to work every month then I still need to live within commuting distance. Some people can tolerate taking a work trip 12 times a year, I suppose, but that'd be a huge downside for me. I actually prefer to be in the office if I live near the office. But being able to live in the city that lets me support my spouse's career is non-negotiable for me.
