Working remotely from Little Rock — my experience

I've been working remotely from Little Rock for 3 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: Fiber available in most areas — no complaints
Coworking spaces: Limited but the library works in a pinch

If you're looking for a place to WFH, Little Rock is a solid choice.

My kids love it here. So many parks and activities. So many outdoor activities.

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

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

Respectfully disagree about the safety concerns. In my experience, it really depends on your lifestyle.

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

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

As someone who moved here from LA, I can confirm most of this. The job opportunities surprised me the most.

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

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