Occupations and Workforce

Pine is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 93.64% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Pine is a town of service providers, professionals, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Pine who work in management occupations (26.10%), art, media, and design (14.25%), and healthcare (11.84%).

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

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 14.25% 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.

Setting & Lifestyle

Another notable thing is that Pine is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal.

Pine is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families.

Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Pine’s overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

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, Pine is worth considering.

As is often the case in a small town, Pine doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
