It identifies key metro areas that support working moms effectively through metrics such as childcare access, educational quality, flexible work options, healthcare availability, and reasonable commuting times. The Northeast and Midwest stand out for their supportive infrastructures, offering working mothers an improved quality of life, which allows them to manage their responsibilities more effectively.
According to the latest U.S. Census Bureau data, 73.2% of mothers with children younger than 18 are in the workforce.
To find the best metros for working moms, CoworkingCafe analyzed data across three key categories-work, education and childcare, and health and environment.
These metros often benefit from strong healthcare infrastructure, education systems and relatively compact geographies, which means shorter commutes and more time at home.
The Midwest also makes a strong showing with top metros like Minneapolis, Des Moines, Iowa, and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
