The article is a good read and shows that the planners are at least thinking about demographics as they try to shape the local economy. As I've mentioned before on this board, the region would benefit from a plan to accelerate the trend of telecommuting. Knowledge workers can often work from their homes or temporary offices. It surprises me that there aren't more (if any) temp-office businesses that cater to this. When you can work a few days a week from the lakes region, the 100 miles to Boston doesn't seem as bad. Full time is even better. As a full-time home-office worker in the lakes region, I wonder how many others like me are already here. I've never seen that statistic. What could the town and county planners do to attract more people that can work anywhere they choose?
