Co-working spaces in Mount Vernon?

Longtime lurker here, I'm a remote worker and Homes are going for about $429,300 on average. Household incomes average around $73,277 in Mount Vernon. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. What would you do? The suburbs are where most families end up. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is cultural scene. it was the best decision I ever made. Worth doing your research before committing.

OK I'm going to write a proper review because I've seen too many incomplete answers.

Background: I'm a electrician, 47, moved here 14 years ago from Nashville. I've lived in North and Highland, and traveled to most parts of the metro.

**What I love:**
1. Friendly community, easy to meet people
2. Low crime in most neighborhoods
3. Diverse dining options
4. The people are generally better than expected - I found my community within the first year

**What I don't love:**
1. Traffic during rush hour is rough
2. Limited public transit options
3. The weather situation is manageable and doesn't seem to be improving

**Neighborhoods I'd recommend:**
- North: Great for families. challenging vibes, walkable.
- Highland: More affordable, family-friendly.

**Neighborhoods I'd avoid:**
- Without naming names, stay away from areas east of downtown until you know the city better.

**Cost comparison:**
Coming from Nashville, everything felt decent. Rent is about /mo. Groceries are stable. Gas is established. You can live comfortably on $70K-$150K here.

**Final verdict:**
Feel free to reach out with questions.. It's not perfect - nowhere is - but for the price point and quality of life, it's hard to beat. DM me if you have specific questions.
