About Clarksville

Clarksville is a somewhat small town located in the state of Maryland. With a population of 7,734 people and just one neighborhood, Clarksville is the 140th largest community in Maryland.

Clarksville is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 94.19% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Clarksville is a town of professionals, managers, and sales and office workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Clarksville who work in management occupations (23.97%), office and administrative support jobs (12.82%), and sales jobs (10.54%).

Also of interest is that Clarksville has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

A relatively large number of people in Clarksville telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 8.97% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. 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.

In addition, Clarksville is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates." Urban sophisticates are people who are both educated and wealthy, and thus tend to be older, richer, and more established than young professionals. "Urban sophisticates" is not just about being educated and well-off financially: it is a point of view and state of mind, one that you might call 'urbaneness.' But such people can and do regularly live in small towns, suburbs and rural areas, as well as in big cities. They read, support the arts and high-end shops, and love travel.

Because of many things, Clarksville is a great place for families with children to consider. First of all, many other families with children live here, making Clarksville a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families, as well as find family-oriented services and community. The town's good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic values. With regard to real estate, Clarksville has a high rate of owner-occupied single family homes, which tends to reflect stability in the local community. Finally, Clarksville's overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

One downside of living in Clarksville, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 31.76 minutes every day commuting to work.

Clarksville is a small town, and as is often the case with smaller towns, the population isn't large or dense enough to support much in the way of a public transportation system. In fact, there are many rural roads around Clarksville, which makes walking or biking to and from work a bit difficult. This makes for a very car-oriented town: 97.2% of residents commute to work by private automobile, and people often drive out of town for work, shopping, and other activities.

Clarksville 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.
