The lovely town I grew up in is actually getting squeezed by real estate investors and absolutely nobody is moving there. I have family there still and my brother told me basically everything is getting snapped up by outside investors, getting the Lowes Rehab, and going on the market for way more than locals can afford. The 'gentrifying' is happening everywhere because wealth addicts were never going to be happy just squeezing the cities. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/219-S-Maple-St_Mount-Carmel_PA_17851_M32646-08435 (and yeah, $120K is out of the reach of the locals there, median household income is ~$32K)

Met a neighbor today that lives down the road and lives on social security. He has a huge pack of dogs and said that "people up here you either want to hug em or shoot em." His deceased MIL's cabin is for rent for $600/mo if you're interested in also living on a mountain.

2000 people moving out of a city isn't worth noticing, 20 people moving into a tiny town is a big deal. suburbanites are already isolated to do nothing outside their property or work. so if they stopped going to work, why spend $1.2 million on a tiny home in tech sprawl instead of $400k on a mansion with 2 acres in the middle of nowhere, and continue ordering all their useless trash from amazon why never going outside?

None of them move to the upper Midwest or western rust belt. Those cities just lie abandoned despite being the best equipped to deal with climate change, plenty of infrastructure around for farms, etc It does seem like Appalachia is getting gentrified which is kind of wild considering it's historical reputation but makes sense due to the fantastic locations mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 04:13 on Mar 27, 2023 |

Rent controls or putting landlords up against a wall mixed building new units would have kept things affordable.

tbh it's kind of surprising more tech people haven't done that. People talk a big game about how city life gives them so much more access to x/y/z and they're not wrong but do most of em actually utilize it? Is some microsoft computer toucher really crawling bars on cap hill , hitting up live performances, reveling in the arts and culture available? Or are they just wfh/commuting to wherever in the GSA they could get property for a bit cheaper and living almost identically to people from smaller cities, putting all their fun money into deliveries and downloads. I grew up in and live a couple hours from seattle and could if I felt like it just take a long weekend there with the wife once in a while and that'd still be more engagement with the city proper than most of my friends who still live there. The person that truly takes advantage of metro life like it's some sort of sitcom feels like a unicorn, you don't have the money when you have the youth and you don't have the youth when you have the money. My brother works for a major tech company and has been wfh for years and finally just pulled the trigger on moving and buying a house cause it's not like he used the city he lived in much anyways and the absurd rent was just pissing away money. It seems like the natural move for the bulk of people.
