I've been remote for almost 7 years.

I live ~175 miles to the closest tech hub, so changing to in-office work isn't an option unless I move. If I was forced to move, an equivalent house to what I have now would cost about 3 times as much and I'd have at least an hour commute each way.

I save a lot of money not commuting and eating at home, and a lot of issues I'd otherwise have to miss work for if I went into an office (family illness, childcare issues) are super easy to adjust my schedule to work around.
