In some cases, that’s meant being able to relocate from expensive cities to regions closer to friends and loved ones, with lower costs of living. But there is a class divide. As the Pew Research Center outlined in December, only 23% of people without a four-year college degree have been able to work remotely during the pandemic. And those who have been lucky enough to hold onto full-time jobs and shift to remote work have faced other hurdles, from lack of childcare to burnout.
