A very large number of seniors call Powder River home: people 65 and over are 28.21% of the population. Because of the prominence of the retirement community, this is good place for the over-65 crowd to settle, as many of the town's services and social community are geared to this demographic.

Powder River is very much a car-oriented town. This is because the population of Powder River isn't large enough or dense enough to support an extensive public transit system.

People also tend to drive out of town for other services as well, such as shopping, doctors appointments, and more.
