Elkton is a somewhat small town located in the state of Florida. With a population of 5,492 people and just one neighborhood, Elkton is the 282nd largest community in Florida. Much of the housing stock in Elkton was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Elkton economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Elkton, where the median household income is $68,227.00.
Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Elkton is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Elkton is a town of service providers, professionals, and sales and office workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Elkton who work in law enforcement and fire fighting (11.77%), computer science and math (10.47%), and office and administrative support (10.09%).
Also of interest is that Elkton 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: 16.72% 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.
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!) Elkton 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. Elkton has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Elkton than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Elkton may be for you.
Being a small town, Elkton does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
The population of Elkton overall has a level of education that is slightly above the US average for all US cities and towns of 21.84%. Of adults 25 and older in Elkton, 23.91% have at least a bachelor's degree.
The per capita income in Elkton in 2018 was $36,738, which is upper middle income relative to Florida and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $146,952 for a family of four. However, Elkton contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
Elkton is a very ethnically-diverse town. The people who call Elkton home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups.
