About New River

New River is a very small town located in the state of Arizona. With a population of 3,789 people and just one neighborhood, New River is the 86th largest community in Arizona.

There's nothing like the smell of a brand new house, and in New River, you'll find that a large proportion of houses were recently built. New growth in residential real estate is an indication that people are choosing to move to New River, and putting down their money on brand new construction. New River's real estate is, on average, some of the newest in the nation. The town does seem to be experiencing an influx of affluent people, because the median household income in New River is $57,917.

Unlike some towns , New River isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in New River are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, New River is a town of sales and office workers, professionals, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in New River who work in office and administrative support jobs (17.02%), management occupations (12.53%), and sales jobs (11.60%).

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

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 9.94% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. 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 downside of living in New River is that it can take a long time to commute to work. In New River, the average commute to work is 40.33 minutes, which is quite a bit higher than the national average.

New River is a very car-oriented town. 96.6% of residents commute to work in a private automobile rather than by other means, such as public transit, bicycling, or walking. This is because New River is a small town, and most people who live here have to drive out of town for work, and the town population is not large nor dense enough to support an extensive public transportation system. New River has a lot of rural roads, and houses can be far apart. Many residents drive out of town for regular shopping trips as well.

Being a small town, New River does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
