Living in Overgaard



Overgaard is a very small town located in the state of Arizona. With a population of 3,780 people and two associated neighborhoods, Overgaard is the 92nd largest community in Arizona.

Also of interest is that Overgaard has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 13.66% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Another notable thing is that Overgaard is a major vacation destination. Much of the town’s population is seasonal: many people own second homes and only live there part-time, during the vacation season. The effect on the local economy is that many of the businesses are dependent on tourist dollars, and may operate only during the high season. As the vacation season ends, Overgaard’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

Overall, Overgaard’s crime rate is one of the lowest in the nation, which makes a great place to live if safety is an important concern.

Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Overgaard is worth considering.

One of the benefits of Overgaard is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 18.15 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.

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

The citizens of Overgaard are slightly better educated than the national average of 21.84% for all cities and towns, with 22.57% of adults in Overgaard having a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.
