A medium sized town, especially an old college town, be vastly preferable for someone who wanted a bucolic atmosphere but who wanted some services and amenities? Or just move to a different city that’s still urbane but not severely inconvenient the way Manhattan can be?

Because if you are working from home part time, but from the office part time, then you need to be in close enough proximity to wherever that office is.
Perhaps you would be willing to move a bit farther away, because a longer commute on fewer days per week means the same total amount of time spent commuting. But I think most people will still balk at the super-commute.
