Twin towns — sister cities
Revello is twinned with:
gollark: You could probably provide grants for that, hmm.
gollark: Adjusting rates for people in specific cities seems like it would make those cities more expensive. Not doing that incentivizes people to go to cheaper places and reduce the cost of living in the big ones.
gollark: You can in fact move between cities, in the higher-paying jobs which presumably give you more freedom.
gollark: Well, people in those cities can just not go there.
gollark: I don't think that would... function at all.
