Working remotely from Vista — my experience

I've been working remotely from Vista for 5 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: a bit high but manageable
Internet: Could be better but workable with a good provider
Coworking spaces: Limited but the library works in a pinch

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

As someone who moved here from New York, I can confirm most of this. The friendliness of people surprised me the most.

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

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

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

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

Moved here last year. No regrets. So many outdoor activities.
