Where will people go now that they can work from anywhere?

Remote work has tripled in the past 15 years... It seems likely to me that that number is about to skyrocket as corona has forced a proof point that people can in fact work from home. 

While Denver and Colorado Springs have benefited the past ten years from people that can live anywhere (aka, remote workers, tech work and digital nomads) because they want a certain quality of life and Denver and Colorado Springs offer that (and then some), I'm wondering what other locations people think will see an influx of remote workers?

Interesting perspective... I guess it assumes you want to be around family more. :)

I know people have been flocking to cities the past couple years, but now they anticipate the trend is to get out of the cities.. I believe that will only happen if restaurants can't reopen, etc. As more and more people decline to have kids, I don't see those same people flocking to the suburbs. 

Interestingly, Colorado is the number one place to live if you are a remote worker (or it was pre-covid), and New York had the lowest number of remote workers (I assume because it was too expensive.)
