About Estero
Estero is a somewhat small coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of Florida. With a population of 9,541 people and just one neighborhood, Estero is the 245th largest community in Florida.
Estero is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 87.52% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Estero is a town of sales and office workers, professionals, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Estero who work in sales jobs (17.36%), office and administrative support jobs (13.80%), and management occupations (13.39%).
Estero is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller town.
A very large number of seniors call Estero home: people 65 and over are 40.25% of the population. Because of the prominence of the retirement community, this is good place for the over-65 crowd to settle, as many of the town's services and social community are geared to this demographic.
One of the nice things about Estero is that is it nautical, meaning that parts of the town are somewhat historic and on the ocean, or touch tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.
Being a small town, Estero does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
