About Grand Isle

Grand Isle is a very small coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of Louisiana. With a population of 1,541 people and just one neighborhood, Grand Isle is the 233rd largest community in Louisiana.

Grand Isle is a blue-collar town, with 38.5% of people working in blue-collar occupations, while the average in America is just 24.7%. Overall, Grand Isle is a town of sales and office workers, service providers, and construction workers and builders. There are especially a lot of people living in Grand Isle who work in office and administrative support jobs (12.94%), sales jobs (9.55%), and food service (8.47%).

Grand Isle is a major vacation destination. Much of the town's population is seasonal: many people own second homes and only live there part-time, during the vacation season. The effect on the local economy is that many of the businesses are dependant on tourist dollars, and may operate only during the high season. As the vacation season ends, Grand Isle's population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

The town is also nautical, which means that parts of Grand Isle are somewhat historic and bounded by the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

Residents of the town have the good fortune of having one of the shortest daily commutes compared to the rest of the country. On average, they spend only 15.69 minutes getting to work every day.

As is often the case in a small town, Grand Isle doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
