Get away from some of this.
With more remote work, people are moving farther from the cities away from all of this bullshite. If your employer doesn't mind, I recommend considering it.
I'm doing this in 2022. Moving from Chicago to be closer to family down south in a very small town.
I wake up in the middle of the night sometimes worrying that we are making a huge mistake. But that's mostly because I'll probably end up having to own two houses again for a while during the transition. And I'm buying a house down there without actually having seen the inside in person (although I know the neighborhood extremely well).
I don't want my kids growing up here. Too many Karens and way too many radical progressive lunatics that are intolerant of any free thought. There is not enough space here, the taxes are insane, the winter weather sucks, the costs of living is skyrocketing (if you want to live in a nice area), and there is no sense of community. There are problems down south, but we can navigate those. I think the tradeoffs are worth it. In fact my wife's career will benefit from this move tremendously and my company will support my transfer request.
I am making the right decision for my family. Some colleagues have confided that they are a little jealous and are considering doing something similar.

As as person who grew up in a very small, southern town, you aren't going to find free thought there.
I do hope you're happy with your decision, but after growing up in a tiny town, I'd never live there again.
