It sounds like you want others to live near you and spend their time doing things for you. That’s fine, but you might not find many people who are willing to do that, especially if they are working to live.
Personally I think the future of work is looking great.
For the remote work class, sure it is. Some of us still have clean your shit at the wastewater treatment plant, run pipe and fiber to you so we can deliver you water and internet and so you can deliver us your excrement.
Which space efficient septic tank do you have in mind?
I didn't say septics are uncommon. To ask you differently:
- How large was that plot (on which the septic system was installed)
- Was the septic system dedicated to your house or shared
- How large was that septic system
Less pollution, less traffic fatalities, less energy use, and more money flowing to remote areas (like where a lot of infrastructure is typically located). All good things for everybody, even if the benefits of working in your PJs are unevenly distributed.

You're on the wrong forum
But you're right in that part of my dilemma here is figuring out what I want to do with my time while also optimizing for decent options going forward. Frankly, I'm leaning toward the being away from hoards of people in the woods ;) .
