Episode notes

Three years in what do you think happens in Tulsa? Do you think this 2400 is sort of peak move to Tulsa or do it keep going? A lot of other cities have. I think there's maybe something like 70 definitely dozens of cities across America are starting programs like this because it makes a lot of sense.

A group in Tulsa, Oklahoma, will pay remote workers $10,000 to move there. Vox’s Rani Molla explains why the city is banking on a digital workforce — and whether the program leaves longtime Tulsans behind.

This episode was produced by Hady Mawajdeh, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Patrick Boyd and Michael Raphael, and hosted by Noel King.
