I don't think that's possible (other than indirectly such as by improving high speed rail so people can benefit from cities without living there). By their nature cities provide greater access to desirable amenities such as art, culture, museums, and niche hobbies.

Art, culture, museums, and niche hobbies are only desirable if the culture (other meaning) deems them desirable.

My dude, people have been making art for at least tens of thousands of years. I don't think people are about to stop now.

Has there ever been a culture that didn't value entertainment or art?
