Small towns have an opportunity to up their game by offering remote work hubs for the 'big city employers'. I'd return to office if I could just walk a few blocks instead of putting my life on the line commuting ten times a week.
- cyberax 1y agoAbsolutely. But smaller cities can't really do that much to attract people. They typically already have very low regulatory burdens for new construction, and very cheap land. What is needed is pressure on _companies_ to force them to consider offices in small cities. And this can be done only via economic forces. For example, with a tax on dense office space and/or tax breaks for remote employment.
