The coronavirus pandemic is causing many Americans to escape to the country. Dubbed an impromptu “great American migration,” as cities become hotspots for COVID-19, urban dwellers are seeking refuge in small towns and rural areas.

Some experts believe that the pandemic will only accelerate the ongoing shift to “middle ground” areas — towns that have urban amenities but are less densely populated.
