Employees are quitting instead of giving up working from home

IMO, that also falls under "city planning". Why do the suburbs have better schools? Maybe if we had better public parks, people wouldn't feel the need to have individual private backyards? Etcetera.

Now, sure, if your partner works XX miles in the opposite direction from you, and/or you have some other unique community attachment, and you can't change jobs, you're always going to have a long commute, and that's a life choice you're going to have to make. But there's no reason that should be the norm.

You can't just handwave away the problems that city planners and politicians have already been trying to solve for decades and have failed to solve.

But when those problems are solved (not likely to happen in my lifetime) I'd be willing to reconsider raising a family in the city near me.
