About Lewiston

Lewiston is a very small town located in the state of Minnesota. With a population of 2,496 people and just one neighborhood, Lewiston is the 242nd largest community in Minnesota. Much of the housing stock in Lewiston was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic towns in the country.

Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Lewiston is neither predominently one or the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Lewiston is a town of sales and office workers, professionals, and production and manufacturing workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Lewiston who work in office and administrative support jobs (14.23%), sales jobs (7.91%), and farm management (7.23%).

Another important characteristic of Lewiston is that a lot of people work in agricultural jobs, especially compared to most other communities in America, and there are quite a number of farms in town.

A relatively large number of people in Lewiston telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 9.39% 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.

Because of many things, Lewiston is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Lewiston really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Lewiston perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic night life, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.

Being a small town, Lewiston does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

Lewiston Information and Demographics
