Living in Boca Raton for Remote Workers
Boca Raton's corporate base has brought real, current coworking infrastructure to the city -- most notably a newly opened, sizable Venture X location -- alongside a Brightline station near Mizner Park for regional travel and a competitive fiber/cable broadband market as of August 2026.

Venture X Boca Raton opened in July 2025, occupying the entire 30,000-square-foot top floor of 1489 W. Palmetto Park Road -- part of a broader $60 million renovation of the two-building Palmetto Central office complex, with full-height hurricane-impact windows, private balconies, and dedicated meeting and conference rooms. Regus also lists locations in Boca Raton, though this research pass did not find a specific address or capacity figure for Regus's Boca presence the way it did for Venture X -- that gap is disclosed rather than estimated.
Internet and Broadband
As of August 2026, AT&T Fiber offers speeds up to 5 Gbps in Boca Raton starting around $35/month, though availability is more limited than Xfinity's cable footprint. Xfinity (Comcast) offers cable, hybrid fiber-coaxial, or fiber service depending on address, with download speeds up to 2 Gbps and internet-only plans starting around $40/month. EarthLink Fiber is cited as covering about 87.43% of the city, and FPL FiberNet -- a local fiber provider -- is described as covering the entirety of Boca Raton and extending beyond city limits in all directions. Verify serviceability at a specific address before relying on it as a home-office location.
Brightline for Regional Flexibility
Boca Raton's own Brightline station, near Mizner Park, opened December 21, 2022 and offers direct rail access to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura, West Palm Beach, and Orlando -- a genuine advantage for remote workers doing periodic in-person client work or hopping between coworking hubs across South Florida without a car (see the traffic-transportation page for detail).
Cost of Living for a Remote Worker
Boca Raton's citywide median sale price ($584K-$675K) and widely-ranging homeowners insurance estimates ($4,558-$14,520/year depending on source) are real costs to weigh against Florida's no-state-income-tax advantage when comparing Boca Raton to lower-cost Florida metros. A remote worker not tied to Downtown Boca specifically may find better value in a community like Boca West (~$532,000 median) while remaining a short drive from Venture X and the Brightline station (see the best-areas page).
Key takeaways
- Venture X Boca Raton, a 30,000-sq-ft coworking space that opened July 2025 as part of a $60M Palmetto Central renovation, is a real, current, well-documented option; Regus also has a presence, though a specific address/capacity wasn't confirmed.
- AT&T Fiber (up to 5 Gbps, from ~$35/month, limited availability) and Xfinity (up to 2 Gbps, from ~$40/month) lead the market, alongside EarthLink Fiber (~87.43% city coverage) and FPL FiberNet (citywide coverage) as of August 2026 -- verify serviceability at a specific address.
- The Brightline station near Mizner Park (opened December 2022) gives remote workers direct rail access to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Orlando without a car.
- Housing and insurance costs run high citywide; remote workers not tied to Downtown Boca specifically may find better value in communities like Boca West while staying close to coworking and rail options.
