一项新研究揭示了对远程工作者来说最昂贵的城市中心，根据合作办公空间和咖啡馆的数量、城市中心租金平均值以及餐饮和咖啡费用。

这表明，马萨诸塞州波士顿的合作办公空间数量每人最多为7.776，并且拥有最高的互联网速度/兆每秒，但它也拥有该市中心第二高的租金成本。加利福尼亚州旧金山拥有最多的咖啡馆和第二多的合作办公空间。

这次审查来自The Perfect Rug公司，他们评估了美国最大城市，以确定远程工作最昂贵的十个城市中心。这是基于人口数据、每人合作办公空间和咖啡馆数量、各州的平均互联网速度（分布在各市）、城市中心公寓的平均每月租金价格、合作办公空间每小时的平均工作桌价格，以及餐饮和咖啡费用等指标。

数据随后被归一化处理，以优先考虑经济性和理想指标，如更多的合作办公空间和咖啡馆数量，更快的互联网速度以及更低的费用。

结果如下：

圣何塞，加州，以24.2的得分位居榜首。每人提供最少的合作办公空间，为1.47，且咖啡费用最高。圣何塞是远程工作最不经济的城市。

圣地亚哥，加州，以26.9的得分排名第二。虽然其每人的合作办公空间数量为4.42，但由于每小时工作桌的平均费用达到此榜单最高的$101，使得该市仍然昂贵。租金价格也很高，虽然略低于圣何塞，但城市中心的平均租金为$2,333。

洛杉矶，加州，以28.7的得分排名第三。虽然城市中心的租金平均为$2,158 ——低于圣何塞和旧金山——但该市对经济性仍然是一个挑战。合作办公空间的每人数量为3.77，与其他城市相比还是相当平均，但餐饮费用高达$25.00，使得洛杉矶又成为远程工作者的昂贵选择之一。

对远程工作者而言，经济性很重要，还有诸如合作办公空间的可用性、互联网速度和日常必需品成本等因素。租金更高、合作办公空间更少的城市会给远程工作者带来财务困难，甚至在其他方面拥有繁荣的工作文化的地方也是如此。

A recent study has identified the most expensive city centers for remote workers based on the number of co-working spaces and cafes, average city center rent, and meal and coffee expenses.

Boston, Massachusetts, leads in the number of co-working spaces per capita at 7.776 and fastest internet speed per Mbps, but also ranks second in city center rental costs. San Francisco, CA, boasts the most cafes and second highest number of co-working spaces.

This analysis was conducted by The Perfect Rug, examining the largest U.S. cities to determine the top ten most costly city centers for remote work. The criteria included population data, co-working spaces and cafes per capita, average internet speeds by state, monthly rent prices for city center apartments, hourly desk prices in co-working spaces, and the expenses for meals and coffee.

The data was normalized to highlight affordability and other favorable metrics such as higher counts of co-working spaces and cafes, faster internet speeds, and lower costs.

The resulting rankings are as follows:

San Jose, CA, takes the top spot with a score of 24.2. Although it has the fewest co-working spaces per capita at 1.47, it has the highest coffee costs, making it the least affordable city for remote work.

San Diego, CA, follows closely with a score of 26.9. Despite a higher number of co-working spaces per capita at 4.42, the city remains expensive due to the high average desk price per hour at $101, the highest on the list. Rent prices are also significant but slightly more affordable than San Jose at an average of $2,333 in the city center.

Los Angeles, CA, comes in third with a score of 28.7. While rent costs in the city center are lower at an average of $2,158 compared to San Jose and San Francisco, the city still poses affordability challenges. The availability of co-working spaces per capita stands at 3.77, but meal costs reach a high of $25.00, adding to its pricey reputation for remote workers.

Affordability is a crucial factor for remote workers, along with elements like co-working availability, internet speed, and daily expenses. Cities with higher rents and fewer co-working spaces present financial obstacles for remote workers, even in locales with thriving work environments.
