The geographical boundaries that traditionally limit where we live and work are being reduced. With laptops and smart phones more and more people are seeking a higher quality of life, while maintaining/improving their professional opportunities.
I think there will be more people moving to areas they wish to live in because their concern for being close to work is lessening. Frankly the job cuts from big companies may begin to accelerate this trend. Companies and communities are not well prepared for this.
There is a first mover advantage for people, companies and communities that consider this and prepare for it.Labels: geography, professional opportunities
