Surrounded by such magnificent beauty and constantly changing weather, most of our residents focus their lives around living in the physical, manifest world. The digital life for us is a tool we use for specific reasons and purposes, not a place we choose to live in.
High-speed internet has come slowly and unevenly to our neighborhoods, and that has effectively shaped the nature of the people who choose to call this home or home-away-from-home. As of 2024, we’re not a people who rely on virtual worlds to find value and meaning in life.
