Revere is a larger medium-sized coastal city (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Massachusetts. With a population of 57,954 people and 14 associated neighborhoods, Revere is the 19th largest community in Massachusetts.

Housing costs in Revere are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Massachusetts.

A relatively large number of people in Revere telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 8.00% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Revere is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

In Revere, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 34.78 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average. One bright side is that local public transit is widely used, so it may be an option to avoid the headache of driving in the heavy traffic by leaving the car at home and taking transit.

Although the majority of commuting trips in the city are by private automobile, Revere is somewhat unusual for a city of its size for having a substantial number of people who use public transportation. For a lot of people, the subway helps to get to and from their jobs every morning, which benefits everyone in the Revere area by reducing both traffic and air pollution.

The education level of Revere citizens is a little higher than the average for US cities and towns: 24.66% of adults in Revere have at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Revere in 2022 was $38,775, which is low income relative to Massachusetts, and upper middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $155,100 for a family of four. However, Revere contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
