One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their homes - 11.82% of the workforce.

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.
In addition, Redding is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates." Urban sophisticates are people who are both educated and wealthy, and thus tend to be older, richer, and more established than young professionals. "Urban sophisticates" is not just about being educated and well-off financially: it is a point of view and state of mind, one that you might call 'urbaneness.' But such people can and do regularly live in small towns, suburbs and rural areas, as well as in big cities. They read, support the arts and high-end shops, and love travel.

Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Redding's overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.
In Redding, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 37.67 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.
Being a small town, Redding does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
