That's because a house 100km away from the nearest job is not cheap. Even rural area houses are very expensive compared to what jobs in those rural areas pay.

This makes them even more of a trap. The rents will go up. And yet, even more jobs will leave those places. And then you haven't saved up, because the amounts were tiny



You mean "job that you want or like". If you make it "any job that pays a roof and food on the table" you will hardly have to travel 100km.


Those jobs are a trap. If you take them you cannot save up to move up to something better. And then you're better off on social support in the city.
