There are especially a lot of people living in Pearlington who work in office and administrative support jobs (13.58%), management occupations (9.54%), and food service (7.80%).

One of the nice things about Pearlington is that is it nautical, meaning that parts of the town are somewhat historic and on the ocean, or touch tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities. This is definately true of Pearlington, which supports a strong tourist economy.

Pearlington 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.
