Scotland is a very small coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of Connecticut. With a population of 1,556 people and just one neighborhood, Scotland is the 164th largest community in Connecticut.
Unlike some towns , Scotland isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Scotland are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Scotland is a town of sales and office workers, professionals, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Scotland who work in office and administrative support jobs (13.59%), sales jobs (12.33%), and teaching (7.14%).
Because of many things, Scotland is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Scotland really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Scotland perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic night life, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
The town is also nautical, which means that parts of Scotland are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Quite often, nautical areas such as these attract visitors and locals who come to enjoy the scenery and various waterfront activities.
Scotland is a very car-oriented town. 98.89% of residents commute to work in a private automobile rather than by other means, such as public transit, bicycling, or walking. This is because Scotland 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. Scotland has a lot of rural roads, and houses can be far apart. Many residents drive out of town for regular shopping trips as well.
The percentage of people in Scotland who are college-educated is somewhat higher than the average US community of 14.96%: 21.97% of adults in Scotland have at least a bachelor's degree.
The per capita income in Scotland in 2000 was $22,573, which is lower middle income relative to Connecticut, and upper middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $90,292 for a family of four. However, Scotland contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
The people who call Scotland home come from a variety of different races and ancestries. The most prevalent race in Scotland is White, followed by African-American. Important ancestries of people in Scotland include French, English, Italian, Irish, French Canadian, German, Polish, Scottish, and Scotch-Irish.
The most common language spoken in Scotland is English.
