Nonsense, that’s why athletes and celebrities and others live in NYC, LA—to avoid such things….or, rather, what you describe is what Caribbean islands are for as part of a second or fourth home.

If athletes can make it from city to city to compete the billionaires can do the same and get from their ranch to their private booths in stadiums.

Why would they want to live like poor people?
Lol what? The richest places/neighborhoods are in big cities... does a penthouse on the top floor of a Manhatten skyscraper not sound appealing? So you rather build a mansion inside a Tennessee valley with nothing around for days...
Maybe the billionaires own multiple locations in urban and rural settings.
Apart from being close to work, what are the benefits to Billionaires of living in big cities.
If i was a billionaire I would have a ranch in the middle of nowhere.
I’d guess most billionaires live in wealthy towns outside of major cities (i.e. Medina WA, Atherton CA). But yeah at that extreme level of wealth there is very little reason to live inside a major city.
Major Cities have a bunch of amenities that Billionares can still participate in that rural areas largely don’t offer. For whatever cultural reason: Rural schools are bad. So bad that most lower middle class suburbia in Houston have better rated schools than most of rural Texas. In fact some rural districts in Texas are almost as bad as the looked down upon urban schools. They can homeschool their kids with the best teachers but a lot of collaborative things schools do need size to them.
Billionaires like the same things we do, nice restaurants (yes I know they can hire a personal chef), they like to go to sporting events and they likely like festivals and celebrations as well..

Billionaires who are relatively unknown live their best lives in urban major centers - but within gated enclaves. Get driven around, have restaurants, events, festivities booked, planned and curated for them and travel via private jet when they want to. A celebrity or someone well known would constantly be identified and bothered so they would actually be better served living somewhere more remote and private.
The Bay and Houston have a very impressive millionaire growth rate considering they already have so many.
