I recently (11 months ago) moved to a large city - Buenos Aires - from an almost-a-town city (100K people).
We moved from a 140 square meter house where I had a large room all for my own as office (also doubled as gym) to a 35 sq meter apartment.
So, my wife gave me an ultimatum: there's no way in hell you're going to keep working at home.
I had to search for a coworking space, I found one really close (10 minutes by bike), that also happens to be the cheapest in the city by far and started working there.
Even thought I still maintain that there's no match to working from home, I find that working there has the incredible benefit of allowing for networking (Even thought the teams in this particular coworking space are rather closed), plus sets very defined boundaries between work and personal life.
As a personal benefit, I'm quite the hermit, where I'd go several days without leaving the house except for grocery shopping, so being forced to actually go out is a plus.
