About Corolla
Corolla is a tiny coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of North Carolina. With a population of 625 people and just one neighborhood, Corolla is the 408th largest community in North Carolina.
Corolla is neither predominently blue-collar or white-collar, instead having a mixed workforce of both blue-collar and white-collar jobs. Overall, Corolla is a town of sales and office workers, managers, and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Corolla who work in management occupations (17.74%), teaching (15.05%), and sales jobs (13.98%).
Also of interest is that Corolla has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
Corolla is an extremely popular destination for tourists and seasonal residents. So much of the population is seasonal such that the town's population swells significantly during the vacation season, and drops again when the season ends. Because of this, much of the local economy is centered around tourism; some businesses may be operated only during the high season. During the low season, year-round residents will notice that the city is a substantially quieter place to live.
One of the nice things about Corolla 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.
Corolla 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.
