### Comment:
people are less and less wiling to live in rural areas, 'everywhere' really means all metropolitan cities. The problem is really two fold. 1. People trying to move to cities 2. institutions and foreign investment see how crazy returns are in real estate and investing as well. would be interesting if a study was done to see how many houses were own occupied (or occupied at all) in large cities in the us

 It's not willingness, it's about necessity. I don't even know what I would do for a living if I moved back to my hometown. All that's left are services for retirees -- and once the boomers are gone there will be nothing.
