If you’re like me, you know a lot of folks who work from home. They might be working for a company that favors remote workers, like Automattic. Or maybe they’re working solo on their own business. Or it could be that they’re part of a startup team that is saving capital by avoiding rent.

Whatever the case, it should come as no surprise that a lot of Oregonians work from home. So many, in fact, that our fair state is ranked second among states for people who work from home.

But what I did find surprising — and awesome — is that Bend is the work from home capital of America.

And that’s not all that’s interesting about Oregon’s working from home workforce. For more, read the analysis from the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis.
