From the passage:

And yet for all the appeal of cities, the 2018 census shows
that small towns and rural communities are experiencing
significant growth. There is a trend of younger adults, in
their thirties and forties, moving back to their small
hometowns or striking out on their own in the country.
Thanks to the ubiquity of the Internet, many professionals
can work from home in the countryside while their main
office remains in the city. Some of these trendsetters are
leaving their city jobs behind to try to earn a living by
farming or crafting goods by hand.
