Nation's Teleworking Capital

Metropolitan Washington is the best teleworking city in the country, according to a survey released Thursday. The results of the survey, published by the Intel Corp., will come as no surprise to those who have watched the steady increase in teleworking in the federal sector for several years.

The “Best Places for Teleworking” study ranked 80 cities based on the potential benefits that working remotely would offer residents. Following Washington in the “very large metro area” category were Boston, Atlanta, Chicago and San Francisco. The top “large metro areas” were San Jose, Calif., Baltimore, Denver, San Diego and Indianapolis.--Daniel Pulliam
