Consider how widely available high-speed broadband through Starlink might change some of these things once that makes living in the interior of the country more desirable. I think we may end up seeing a sort of reverse of the industrial revolution's migration pattern over the coming decades.

Totally possible! I hope we actually see small walkable enclaves throughout the country. Like the little mountain resort towns, but kept afloat by residents rather than tourism. Jobs are a big part of the equation with living in a city, but definitely not the only one. Food, arts, other cultural artifacts that people who live in cities care about are harder to move across the web for sure.
