Belong & Work Remotely in the Evansville Region
Total Incentive
$7,300
Description
Belong Here. Live and work remotely in the Evansville Region.
Evansville is for the person who works from anywhere and wants somewhere worth being. Your work-from-anywhere day could look like coffee from a local shop a few minutes from home, into Cowork Evansville to focus for the morning, lunch somewhere on Haynie's Corner, and back at your desk before most people in bigger cities have cleared their commute. What you do with the hours you're not losing to traffic is up to you — the Ohio River Greenway, a show at the Victory Theatre, or just the backyard you can actually afford.
Evansville is one of those rare places where the door is genuinely open.
