Yes, but in a remote work family you can buy an house everywhere. You pay a lot less in rent outside the city.

You don't have work anymore as a constraint, but it's not the only constraint to where people live.

If you are single and want to live alone, you can certainly optimize the hell out of housing costs. But of course, each single constraint you remove will probably let you reduce your costs by a bit.

Working remote need not be conflated with wanting to live in the suburbs. Indeed part of the reason I negotiated remote was because I live downtown, and the office is way out in the burbs.
