About Alfred

Alfred is a very small town located in the state of Maine. With a population of 2,497 people and just one neighborhood, Alfred is the 184th largest community in Maine.

Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Alfred is neither predominently one or the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Alfred is a town of sales and office workers, service providers, and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Alfred who work in office and administrative support jobs (18.35%), sales jobs (6.18%), and management occupations (4.63%).

Alfred is very much a car-oriented town. This is because the population of Alfred 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. 96.88% 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.

Alfred 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.
