The pandemic has impacted our lives in so many ways. One of the most notable ways is that more and more people have been able to work from home and aren’t tied down to an in-person office like they used to be. With that newly realized freedom, it’s only natural for people to want to travel and move to their dream locations. But before you pack up and move somewhere new, check out these 11 states that will actually pay remote workers to move there.
Redfin has compiled a list of the 11 states and what each state is offering. But it’s not just open to remote workers; some offer financial incentives if you accept a local in-person position as well.
With remote work becoming the new norm, many states are upping the game and offering enticing financial incentives for people looking to relocate. If you’re a remote worker moving out of state or looking for a fresh start and new job, you may find that moving to one of these places could be a decision that pays off – literally. And with the lower cost of living and median home prices in many of these cities, you’ll likely experience many more economic benefits in addition to the money you receive for moving.
