Jonesborough recognized as affordable small community for remote workers

Here’s a potentially significant recognition in these COVID-19, work from home days. Jonesborough, TN made PC Magazine’s list of 15 affordable towns in the U.S. that also provide fast Internet service for remote workers.

The article describes the County Seat of Washington County this way: “Appalachian culture is alive in Jonesborough, a regional cultural hub with a repertory theater, arts center, and a historic downtown with tours led by costumed reenactors. The annual National Storytelling Festival has led Jonesborough to declare itself the ‘storytelling capital of the world.’ The Buffalo Mountain Park and Cherokee National Forest have extensive outdoors opportunities. Nearby Johnson City is a larger commercial hub surrounded by state parks.”

Here’s a link to the article if you want to see other cities on the list.
