Is Lakewood good for remote workers?
Been living here since 2013. Homes are going for about $618,400 on average. Rent is about $1,647/month for a decent place. Median household income is $57,576, which feels about average for the area. It's a a smaller city city with about 69,884 people. The unemployment rate is 3.6%, which is pretty low. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
