USA? The Midwest. Mountain states. There's a reason wfh folks are making bank out there. You can slowly turn those areas blue too with migration.
What are they making bank on?
Literally everyone that is WFH is employed by a tech giant with a high 6 figure salary intended for San Fran market standards, but choosing to live in a shack out in the boonies pocketing the difference. This is definitely stable, viable and repeatable for everyone in America. Go make bank y'all.
Edit: Geez, do I need the /s? Most companies caught onto this shit like 6 months into the pandemic and do cost-of-living salary adjustments for WFH now. Damn near no one is "making bank by moving" any more.
Shit, here I am in the plains states with a WFH job for a firm the next state over, seriously considering moving my family to a more expensive state with less shitty politics. (Or Europe, depending on where I could get a digital nomad visa.) I've got some real concerns about what happens after the elections and I don't feel particularly comfortable being here, with the way that my family looks and my politics are.
Farm subsidies to not grow corn.
No jobs and no culture and schools suck.
