Talk:Zoom town

Globalization
Though the term "Zoom town" may not be used, I suspect that many sources are available for "remote work towns" that have seen population booms around the world due to COVID. I think that terms other than "zoom town" should be considered for sources about such towns elsewhere, and I figured I'd put a few sources (not making any claim as to their compliance with WP:RS but they may be a starting point) here to help. (in french). And more. I found these by searching "remote work town ". These exist everywhere, but I think the term "Zoom town" is localized to the US and English speaking countries (if even that) - so expanding the search to "remote work town" may provide more sources for globalization.

The "Best Cities to Work From Home" List is very flawed
This is the source of many of the example cities on that list, and is just pulled from the usual best places to live algorithm. A Zoom town is defined as a place where people would like to live but there are very few local jobs - so basically resort towns and remote towns.

Cary, NC is not a Zoom town. No one has moved to Cary with the express purpose of working remotely.
