One of the biggest perks of working from home for me is not having to commute to work. Having to get up and drive downtown every morning sounds awful, so I'm surprised you listed it as a perk.

Do you live in a place with good public transport or do you actually not mind having to drive downtown every day?




I live in a bikeable medium-sized city (Salt Lake), so it's a ten-minute bike ride or 20-minute bus ride for me. I really like the atmosphere of being downtown, especially all the food options.


SLC is bikable? Last I heard, the air pollution there was the absolute worst out of the whole nation.


Some people like the social aspect of their work. I work best when I am alone at home as well but sometimes feel very socially isolated.


Exactly the same here. I actually only go to co-working spaces when I have very little work to do but the urge to be among people. When I need to be productive, I stay home.
