Working remotely from Roanoke — my experience

I've been working remotely from Roanoke for 4 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, Roanoke is worth considering.

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

Check out the Downtown area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Great post! One thing I'd mention is check out the local Facebook groups for neighborhood info. Makes a big difference.
