> of course I would want to earn a US tech salary while living somewhere in the country side, who wouldn't

I wouldn’t. I like cities and center of culture and human activity. And the stats generally show cities growing globally, so I’m not the only one.

Replace "somewhere in the country side" with "some other place where the cost of living is lower than the highest one in the country" if it makes you happier.

The same argument applies. Places with high costs of living are high because they’re desirable. There are no cheap cities I’d want to live in.
