What are free or not so free places for concentrated freelancing activities?
I'm trying to freelance. But I ran into the problem that I can’t concentrate fully at home, something or someone constantly distracts me, and thus I need a separate place to work. You can work in the office for someone else, but it means not doing much more important projects remotely.
What kind of privacy can you find for me and my laptop, one where nothing distracts?
The only thing that comes to mind first is also to rent an office. But maybe there are other options? What places do you have where you can concentrate and not be distracted? Except at home, of course. I would go there every day and purely freelance for 6-7 hours.

If you live in a high-rise building, perhaps there are some rooms in the house that can be rented after talking with the building manager, and equipped as an office.
At home, is something or someone more distracting?
In the second case, there is salvation. A lot of options have already been mentioned above.
And if the first one, then you need to save yourself from yourself and here, IMHO, just go along the ancient path of the Void.
I quite managed to train my family at one time, including a two-year-old child, so as not to interfere.
I'm trying to freelance.
I asked the same question a year ago.
Options:
1. Separate room in the apartment. Definitely with a door. The most badass.
2. Coworking. The option is good, but they are usually concentrated in the center and you still need to get there. And with full employment, renting a coworking space tends to the cost of an office.
3. Exotic: cafe, library, forest. The option is working for a couple of hours, but not very much on an ongoing basis. Is that the library, if you agree with them explicitly.
4. Office. Here, from the obvious disadvantages, you will be sitting alone. Many hours every day. For some, it can be dark.
5. Buying an apartment. I'm serious. If you take the simplest one-room studio, then the mortgage payment will be a little more than the cost of renting an office. So why give money to someone when you can combine business with pleasure?
In the end, I settled for myself at the office. Found a room in the office for less than 10k.r. a mile from home. It's even cheaper than coworking for a month. Happy as an elephant. Productivity in the office is an order of magnitude greater than at home. Even if no one is at home.
