Desky, an ergonomic furniture brand, looked at data on internet speeds, electricity costs per kilowatt-hour and remote job openings in each state to find out which states are best for working from home, according to a news release.
"Working from home has become a widespread thing not only in the U.S. but across the globe; even the 'norm' for certain companies," said Justin Marshall, founder of Desky. "In most cases, it is cheaper than being in the office through the lack of commuting.
