Oh that's such a good question. Thankfully there are not shortages of quiet cafes and coworking spaces in the U.S. if you're someone who needs to have people around you. Personally though, I'm more often than not working from home (despite the tweet above, haha). If I had to be 100% honest as to why that is the case, I'd have to say that it really is just laziness ? AND I also don't like spending money on things that I can do myself (coffee, sandwiches, etc.), so paying for my cafe bill always annoys me a little ($5 dollars for a small latte?! Come on!).
Just like eleonorang though, I do feel the need to be surrounded by people once in a while. I have a tendency to withdraw from the world and only focus on work/school, so sometimes I force myself to get out of the house to make sure that I'm not completely turning into a hermit.
I do have to say that my productivity is way higher when I'm at a cafe though. I think that having people around me who are focused and doing their work encourages me to avoid procrastinating. I just wish going to cafes everyday wasn't so damn expensive! I could easily rent a small office space with that money 🤷
