Bemidji touts quality of life — and a little cash — to recruit new residents

Bemidji is offering people $2,500 to relocate to the area and bring their remote job with them. So far, more than 20 telecommuters have taken the city up on it, from the Twin Cities to as far away as Oregon and Arizona. This is an MPR News morning update for Thursday, November 11, 2021. Hosted by Cathy Wurzer.

Our theme music is by Gary Meister.
