Weymouth 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 57,410 people and 13 associated neighborhoods, Weymouth is the 23rd largest community in Massachusetts.

Housing costs in Weymouth 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.

Also of interest is that Weymouth has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.62% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. 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.

One of the nice things about Weymouth is that it is nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.

In Weymouth, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 33.74 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.

Like elsewhere in America, most people in Weymouth use a private automobile to get to work. But notably, a substantial number of Weymouth‘s citizens do make use of public transit in their daily commute, primarily riding the subway. This helps more people get to work with less air pollution, and require fewer highways to get them there.

The citizens of Weymouth are among the most well-educated in the nation: 40.95% of adults in Weymouth have a bachelor's degree or even advanced degree, whereas the average US city has 21.84% holding at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Weymouth in 2022 was $51,316, which is middle income relative to Massachusetts, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $205,264 for a family of four. However, Weymouth contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

Weymouth is a very ethnically-diverse city. The people who call Weymouth home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Weymouth residents report their race to be White, followed by Asian. Important ancestries of people in Weymouth include Irish, Italian, English, German, and French.
