One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.00% 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 city because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Gold Hill has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Gold Hill has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Gold Hill than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here.
