(AU) A person who moves to a rural location.
Australian slang for someone who abandons city life to relocate to a rural or semi-rural area, typically seeking a slower pace, nature, and lower property prices. The treechanger is the bush-dwelling counterpart to the seachanger, who moves to the coast. The term became particularly loaded during the remote-work boom of the early 2020s, when thousands of Australians made the leap from inner suburbs to regional towns, sparking debates about urban flight and rural gentrification.
