A relatively large number of people in Concord telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 13.73% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country.

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

One downside of living in Concord, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 32.45 minutes every day commuting to work.

Although the majority of commuting trips in the city are by private automobile, Concord is somewhat unusual for a city of its size for having a substantial number of people who use public transportation. For a lot of people, the subway helps to get to and from their jobs every morning, which benefits everyone in the Concord area by reducing both traffic and air pollution.
