One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 18.29% of the workforce.

Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy.
