Working remotely from Plymouth — my experience

I've been working remotely from Plymouth for 12 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, Plymouth is worth considering.

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

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

Respectfully disagree about the cost of living assessment. In my experience, it's been pretty safe in my area.

I've lived in Highland Park for 7 years and it's still one of the best decisions I made.

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

I've lived in Riverside for 5 years and it's decent, has its pros and cons.

Totally agree with this. I've been here 9 years and my experience is very similar.

Traffic is the worst part honestly. But if you live near work it's fine.

Coming from New York, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are slightly more expensive but housing makes up for it.

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