After the Covid-19 pandemic, many Americans discovered the advantages of working from home. Many of them stated that it saved significant time and money. However, the team at Ooma shows us with this infographic that not all states will offer as many work from home advantages as others. That’s why they calculated which states have the lowest rent compared to salary, which states have the best internet speeds, and the lowest electricity bills, and internet fees. They used these factors to create a scoring system for work from home desirability. The state that topped the list was North Dakota followed by its neighbor South Dakota. But which states might not give your work from home endeavors an edge? The low scorers had poor Internet connection, high salaries, and expensive electricity bills.
These are the states that had the lowest work from home scores:
- Massachusetts
- Alaska
- Maryland
- New York
- Utah
