I think you’re definitely right. We’ve been in a major cycle of urban growth and development over the last 15 or so years. Just a theory, but I think we’re actually seeing the start of a cycle where people favor suburban and rural areas as work from home provides more freedom in terms of where people can live. This cycle might be painful for urban areas at first but eventually could lead to more affordable housing and independent businesses returning to urban areas as chains follow the money back out to the burbs. Just a thought and will take a while regardless!

I've been in the area forever and am actively looking at rural areas now that I work 100% remote. I love the city, but we would never be able to own property here.
