And a 2021 study from Pew Research Center found that one in five adults preferred city life, compared to one quarter of adults in 2018&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Millennials reported to BoA that the pandemic increased their likelihood of buying a home&#8230;<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Will+Remote+Working+Lead+Millennials+to+Buy+Homes+in+Affordable+Remote+Suburbs%3F%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fit.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F05%2F06%2F2027216%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/twitter_icon_large-250.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fit.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F05%2F06%2F2027216%2Fwill-remote-working-lead-millennials-to-buy-homes-in-affordable-remote-suburbs%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/facebook_icon_large-125.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/it.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/05\/06\/2027216\/will-remote-working-lead-millennials-to-buy-homes-in-affordable-remote-suburbs?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/it.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/05\/06\/2027216\/will-remote-working-lead-millennials-to-buy-homes-in-affordable-remote-suburbs?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Will Remote Working Lead Millennials to Buy Homes in Affordable Remote Suburbs?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An anonymous reader shared this report from Fortune: For eight years now, as millennials have entered their thirties and forties, also known as &#8220;homebuying age,&#8221; Bank of America has surveyed over 1,000 members of the generation once a year for &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/?p=1136581\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1136582,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[101,110],"tags":[100],"class_list":["post-1136581","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-slashdot","category-unfiltered-rss","tag-slashdot"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1136581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1136581"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1136581\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1136582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1136581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1136581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1136581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
