Landers is a very small town located in the state of California. With a population of 2,794 people and two associated neighborhoods, Landers is the 620th largest community in California.

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

Also of interest is that Landers 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: 16.81% 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 Landers 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, Landers’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Landers has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Landers has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Landers than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Landers may be for you.

One downside of living in Landers, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 36.84 minutes every day commuting to work.

The education level of Landers citizens, measured as those with bachelor's degrees or advanced degrees, is similar to the national average for all American cities and towns. 20.41% of adults 25 and older in Landers have a college degree.
