Reply to comment by SpaceObama in Rather than heralding a new era of prosperity for rural and remote regions, remote working, inspired by the pandemic, is exacerbating the global urban-rural divide in the digital platform labour market by giuliomagnifico

Same thing in the UK that I am doing because prices in the city are climbing high since people from the south are being driven out by high rent in their own cities they come here which in turn makes us who live here unable to pay the same prices (wfh with london salary tends to be higher than in manchester) so then we have to move and continue the cycle onto another area.

Weird that it’s the same buzz in multiple countries.

My area is the end of the line though, there isn’t any place cheaper in this country. The price of houses and rent have doubled within the past two years.
