100 work from home jobs - With average salaries

Most people who talk about remote jobs are usually referring to low-paying, sporadic, “gig economy” jobs. For example, you can get paid for testing websites online. These are great but are not enough to make a full income. What about actual careers that are based from your home? These work from home jobs exist, and are increasingly becoming popular across the world. In fact, a recent research study found that somewhere around 37% of jobs in the US can be done entirely from home. And workers are taking advantage of this en masse. In 2019 31% of workers reported working for entirely remote companies.

Work from home careers are now very popular. Most positions, from accountant to programmer to nurse can now be done completely or mostly from home. The average median income for remote jobs across all sectors is $77,135. Many remote positions like Android Developer ($112,647) and Remote/Online Pharmacist ($100,504) have salaries that pay more than $100,000 a year.
