There is going to be attrition on all fleets. The 175 isn't going to be the growth gravy train it has been but the door isn't slamming shut on attrition either.
Pick what ever airplane gives you the base you want and the best QOL. Commuting to Reserve is terrible. If you can move to your base and drive to work you will be much happier. Having done a two leg commute to reserve previously I opted to move and drive to work this time around. My mental health is worth the move.

The 175 will have a huge cluster of FOs around the same seniority, meaning relative seniority will not change until those FOs start upgrading. The 145 will have a large variety of FO seniority, meaning attrition will stay relatively consistent. On the 175, once those FOs start hitting upgrade, it will move like gangbusters, but until then, no one's seniority on the equipment will really go anywhere.
