Working remotely from Amarillo — my experience

I've been working remotely from Amarillo for 2 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, Amarillo is a solid choice.

Don't sleep on Downtown. It's up and coming and still affordable.

I'd add that the school system has been improving steadily. Otherwise spot on!

Can confirm the safety issue. But it really depends on the neighborhood. Riverside and Pine Grove are perfectly safe.

Weather is the biggest factor for us. Four seasons are nice, not too extreme either way.

If you can afford it, Highland Park is the best place to live. Period.
