Best Places to Live in America While Working Remotely
Been working from home the past year and a half? You’re not the only one. According to a year-end report in December, 71% of workers say they work from home all or some of the time. This is a big change from the past, when only one in five workers said the same thing.
With more and more of the United States workforce working from home, our living options have broadened. Remote workers can live anywhere they want! In honor of this, here are some of the best places to live in America while working remotely.
Sunrise, Florida
There’s a reason Florida is such a popular retirement destination. It has great weather, no income tax and lots of family-friendly activities to enjoy. The only problem is that it can get kind of expensive the closer you get toward Miami. This is where Sunrise comes in. Located just 30 minutes from Fort Lauderdale, Sunrise has affordable housing and access to both beaches and highways. You’ll be able to enjoy a small-town feel with access to a wealth of attractions.
Pasadena, Texas
Texas is one of the most popular states in the nation for remote workers and those looking for a change. There is no income tax in Texas and the expansive state has lots of sights and sounds to experience. Since so many people are moving to major Texas cities like Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio and Houston, however, it can cause congestion and an increased cost of living. Pasadena is a good alternative, as it’s a medium-sized town with a small-town feel, yet is only 10-20 minutes away from Houston.
Lancaster, California
Want to enjoy the benefits of Los Angeles without the high price tag? Consider moving to The Antelope Valley, where Palmdale and Lancaster are located. There’s an abundance of things to do, but the cost of living is much lower than down below. Enjoy the beauty and clear skies of the California High Desert as you work from home in this sister city.
Marietta, Georgia
Marietta is unique in that it attracts all kinds of people, from blue-collar workers to white-collar professionals. It’s more affordable than Atlanta, but still is within easy reach of it. If the charm of the South and its beautiful homes, green landscaping and affordable cost of living speak to you, then Marietta might be your best bet for a work-from-home hub.
