At City Central, our goal is for each member to have an exceptional experience every time they are here! We achieve this by providing flexible options for workspace, like our coworking options across all locations. Coworking spaces have become increasingly popular over the years and continue to prove to be a valuable option for startups, the dispersed employee, and seasoned entrepreneurs alike. If you are ready for a fresh work environment, check out our top 10 reasons why you should work from a coworking space!

First let’s start by answering the question: “what is coworking?” Coworking is an arrangement in which individuals from different companies share office space or communal workspace. Generally, this space is operated by awesome flexible workspace companies like City Central.

Why Go For Coworking Spaces? - 10 Reasons

Coworking is a cost-effective way to have a workspace and all the amenities that normally go along with a private office space.

So why should you work from a coworking space?

1. Community: One of the best parts of working from a shared coworking space is the community factor. We all need human connection and with coworking, you get the opportunity to network with other self-starters and be fueled by their energy, and vice-versa. There is always an opportunity to establish new relationships and collaborations!
2. Professional Environment: If you are the nomadic business-person who doesn’t require a fixed office, or has a home office, communal workspace is the ideal option. You get access to a professional environment to meet clients and business associates while maintaining the freedom to work from wherever!
3. Meeting Rooms, Day Offices, and Studios: To further add to the professional appearance of your business, coworking spaces often include access to meeting rooms, day offices, and recording/podcast studios. In the event you need to have a private meeting or recording session, the solution is already available to you!
4. Address & Mail Handling: We cannot say enough about the amenities of coworking space! Having a professional address for your business is a huge benefit. Did you know that City Central offers Address & Mail Handling with all Coworking memberships? We do this because we know having a professional address is so important for your business image both online and offline. 
5. Flexibility: Most coworking spaces offer 24/7 access to members. So if you are starting that side hustle on the weekends or spending late nights working on the launch of your next product, you have the flexibility to use the communal workspace at literally anytime!
6. Networking Events: We briefly mentioned networking above, but it really is a bonus of being in a coworking space. You get to attend tailored networking events and make meaningful connections that will help you grow your network and grow your business. 
7. Productivity: If you have been working from home, you may have experienced a slump in productivity. The amazing thing about having a place to go to work is how quickly it can improve your mood and motivation. It won’t take long for you to notice how quickly your productivity improves by having a coworking desk to utilize anytime!
8. Support: At coworking spaces, you get the support of your community managers and associates. You will always have a team of people with you to provide solutions to the normal workday mishaps and issues that arise. Furthermore, you get to work in a space where people remember you by name and want to see your business thrive! Coworking is the work-home away from home. 
9. Work-Life Balance: If you have been working from home, then you have experienced the fatigue that arises from constantly trying to separate work from personal life. When you are at home there is room for constant distractions of all of the home projects you could be working on. On the flip-side, it is also hard to unplug and disconnect when “quitting time” rolls around. You can easily fall into the habit of checking that one last email or adding one last finishing touch to a project until you find yourself in bed at 11 pm still working. Whereas having a place to go to work each day establishes work time from personal time. 
10. Free Beer: You’ve been working hard and deserve a break! Most coworking spaces offer free beer on tap to members. So as you are sitting at home deciding if coworking is for you, remember, you could be making this decision with a beer in your hand at City Central.
