About Cairo
Cairo is a tiny town located in the state of West Virginia. With a population of 272 people and just one neighborhood, Cairo is the 216th largest community in West Virginia.
Unlike some towns , Cairo isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Cairo are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Cairo is a town of service providers, sales and office workers, and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Cairo who work in office and administrative support jobs (13.25%), food service (9.64%), and law enforcement and fire fighting (8.43%).
One downside of living in Cairo is that it can take a long time to commute to work. In Cairo, the average commute to work is 44.49 minutes, which is quite a bit higher than the national average.
Cairo is a small town, and as is often the case with smaller towns, the population isn't large or dense enough to support much in the way of a public transportation system. In fact, there are many rural roads around Cairo, which makes walking or biking to and from work a bit difficult. This makes for a very car-oriented town: 100% of residents commute to work by private automobile, and people often drive out of town for work, shopping, and other activities.
As is often the case in a small town, Cairo doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
