Unlike some towns , Ocracoke isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Ocracoke are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Ocracoke is a town of sales and office workers, service providers, and construction workers and builders. There are especially a lot of people living in Ocracoke who work in sales jobs (22.79%), office and administrative support jobs (15.67%), and food service (10.26%).
A relatively large number of people in Ocracoke telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 7.69% 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.

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