Amid the rise in remote working, Saku City in Nagano Prefecture is aiming to attract new residents. They've started a system to subsidize transportation costs for those living and working remotely in the area while making work trips out to urban hubs. Officials hope to curb the effects of population decline. We listen to the news story in Japanese, review the construction "A to B no aida" (between A and B), and learn expressions related to "hikkoshi" (changing residence) and "ijuu" (relocation).
