Extrapolating from 'rural mountainous Georgia' to all red states, including Texas and Florida is a bit of a stretch. I live in a remote mountain town in North Central Washington and there are dozens, if not hundreds, of remote tech workers. I have good internet through a local ISP and starlink is now prevalent in our area as well.

Fair enough. I was looking in the triangle between Asheville, Nashville, and Atlanta. The few homes i was like "I will buy this now if i can get good internets" did not play out for me. I'm looking for an excess of land though, to indulge my many hobbies, so that is certainly constraining my options. It's okay though, I'm in no rush. Once Starlink is rolled out en masse I'm sure the equation will drastically change for me.
Also, FWIW, I meant more rural areas than just "red states". Even in solidly republican states there is a fairly prominent urban/rural divide.
