Chiang Mai, Thailand, is a popular destination, especially with digital nomads looking for a place for remote work.
I have stayed in Chiang Mai for a few times and as a digital nomad, I will talk about the pros I’ve experienced.
Aside from the well-known low cost of living, Chiang Mai offers many benefits not just to casual tourists but to retirees and immigrants.
Chiang Mai has a rainy season from May to Oct. and burning season in Feb. is anonymous. But the weather in Chiang Mai is cooler compared to the southern regions of Thailand, because it is located in a mountainous region.
There are many coworking spaces with good Internet access and cafes, such as Akha ama cafe, Fern forest cafe, Ristr8to, where you can relax after work. There are also many condos and homestays available for long term stays.
Chiang Mai is very foreigner-friendly. Not just tourists, but also many retired immigrants from Australia and the United States stay in Chiang Mai. Because of the huge population of native English speakers, locals speak English too, so learning Thai is not required. English is spoken in gyms and yoga, or cooking classes.
And within 10 minutes on a scooter, you can reach big, modern hospitals and shopping malls. You can get a good massage everywhere from Chiang Mai Night Market or at the Sunday Market (Chiang Mai Weekend Night Market). Neighborhoods near Chiang Mai University outside the Old City are also not to be missed.

02:46 You can feel like you are on vacation while you are working. Compared to southern Thailand, the climate is cooler, and there are many tourist attractions such as temples around.
03:27 The crime rate is low.
04:06 The level of service is high. Restaurants and cafes are not only highly satisfied with their service but also have a high level of taste.
05:19 It is foreigner friendly. There are many foreigners, and the locals are also fluent in English.
