Working remotely from Fishers — my experience
I've been working remotely from Fishers for 6 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: Could be better but workable with a good provider
Coworking spaces: A few good ones downtown
If you're looking for a place to WFH, Fishers is worth considering.

I'd add that healthcare options are better than most cities this size. Otherwise spot on!

Public transit needs work but they're investing in it. Should improve in next few years.

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

Downtown is overrated and overpriced. The suburbs offer way better value.

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

The job market has been improving lately. Several government companies moved in recently.

Good summary. I'd rate it higher personally — maybe 6/10.

Coming from New York, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are about the same.

As someone who moved here from Chicago, I can confirm most of this. The friendliness of people surprised me the most.
