A big nope for relocation.

I have a family and I hate big cities. Furthermore I worked for several years with remote colleagues or even managing a remote team. Full remote work is handy, it optimizes your time, and your even more productive since there are no parasite conversations along the day. But yeah, you still need to work in a co-working place to avoid being too lonely. Especially when you don't have a family.

haha but relocation doesn't always mean big cities. I relocated from Moscow (around 17 mil people) to Tallinn (400k) and I couldn't be happier :D

I live in a french town of 200k people. And that's my hard limit, ahah. Since many jobs are in cities bigger than my actual one, that explains why I don't want to be relocated.

But that's not a problem, there're also many full remote jobs out there!
