I think we might have different conceptions of what is desirable and acceptable travel distances. Being American and from flyover America, I'm entirely used to having to use a connecting flight to get anywhere, it's just how our air system is structured. I also regard getting away from civilization as inherently good. There's nothing in the cities worth staying in the cities for. A small city, as long as it has a daily scheduled puddlejumper, is more than enough for me to move in as long as I can find work.

In my line of work it's a lot harder to avoid civilization unless I go full remote. I'm in Green Bay, and that's about as small as a city can get and still need software developers.
