Unlike some villages where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, East Alton is neither predominently one or the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, East Alton is a village of sales and office workers, service providers, and construction workers and builders. There are especially a lot of people living in East Alton who work in office and administrative support jobs (16.53%), sales jobs (14.49%), and food service (7.14%).

East Alton is very much a car-oriented village. This is because the population of East Alton isn't large enough or dense enough to support an extensive public transit system. It has a lot of rural roads, and the distance between houses can be quite large, which together tends to discourage walking and bicycling to work. 96.55% of residents commute to work in their own car (and the drive is typically to a job out of town). People also tend to drive out of town for other services as well, such as shopping, doctors appointments, and more.

As is often the case in a small village, East Alton doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
