About Alhambra

Alhambra is a very small town located in the state of Illinois. With a population of 1,568 people and just one neighborhood, Alhambra is the 543rd largest community in Illinois. Alhambra has an unusually large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic towns in the country.

Because occupations involving physical labor dominate the local economy, Alhambra is generally considered to be a blue-collar town. 37.4% of the Alhambra workforce is employed in blue-collar occupations, compared to the national average of 24.7%. Overall, Alhambra is a town of sales and office workers, construction workers and builders, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Alhambra who work in office and administrative support jobs (23.93%), sales jobs (6.86%), and building maintenance and grounds keeping (4.92%).

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their homes - 8.36% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. 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.

Alhambra is a small town, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.
