Reply to comment by _AnecdotalEvidence_ 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

  1. No, for sure

  2. Often, yes. I think there is this image of people moving from very liberal cities to very conservative rural areas, but a lot of people just want to move a little further away from the city where they currently live. That's what I'm interested in - and what I did in the beginning on COVID. No huge cultural shift. Internet connectivity is the limiting factor. If I move as I am planning to do then I will still be able to drive into work as needed.
