Saginaw is a somewhat small town located in the state of Minnesota. With a population of 7,065 people and two associated neighborhoods, Saginaw is the 125th largest community in Minnesota.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 13.02% 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.
Because of many things, Saginaw is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Saginaw really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Saginaw perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Saginaw is worth considering.
Being a small town, Saginaw does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
The percentage of people in Saginaw who are college-educated is somewhat higher than the average US community of 21.84%: 25.92% of adults in Saginaw have at least a bachelor's degree.
