Working remotely from Alexandria — my experience

I've been working remotely from Alexandria for 1 years now. Here's my take:

The pace of life here is perfect for remote work. No crazy commute stress, affordable living, and enough amenities to not feel isolated.

Cost of living: pretty reasonable
Internet: Decent, getting better with new providers
Coworking spaces: Growing number of options

If you're looking for a place to WFH, Alexandria is underrated for remote workers.

Check out the Southside area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Rent tip: look for places in October-November. Prices drop and there's more availability.
