About Poland

Poland is a very small village located in the state of Ohio. With a population of 2,866 people and just one neighborhood, Poland is the 453rd largest community in Ohio.

Unlike some villages , Poland isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Poland are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Poland is a village of sales and office workers, professionals, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Poland who work in office and administrative support jobs (19.97%), sales jobs (14.52%), and management occupations (11.33%).

Of important note, Poland is also a village of artists. Poland has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Poland's character.

In addition, Poland is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates." Urban sophisticates are educated, wealthy, executives and professionals, who have urbane tastes in books, food, and travel, whether they actually live in a big city, or choose to reside in a small town. In big or medium-sized cities, urban sophisticates tend to frequent art institutions such as opera, symphonies, ballet, live theatre, and museums.

Because of many things, Poland 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, Poland really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Poland 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.

Poland is a very car-oriented village. 99.04% of residents commute to work in a private automobile rather than by other means, such as public transit, bicycling, or walking. This is because Poland is a small village, and most people who live here have to drive out of town for work, and the town population is not large nor dense enough to support an extensive public transportation system. Poland has a lot of rural roads, and houses can be far apart. Many residents drive out of town for regular shopping trips as well.

Poland is a small village, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.
