Indian Shores is a very small coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Florida. With a population of 1,468 people and just one neighborhood, Indian Shores is the 390th largest community in Florida.
Indian Shores home prices are not only among the most expensive in Florida, but Indian Shores real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.
Indian Shores is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 98.19% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Indian Shores is a town of managers, professionals, and sales and office workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Indian Shores who work in management occupations (30.98%), business and financial occupations (14.13%), and teaching (11.41%).
Of important note, Indian Shores is also a town of artists. Indian Shores has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Indian Shores’s character.
A relatively large number of people in Indian Shores telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 24.49% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. 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 Indian Shores is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller town.
In addition, Indian Shores is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates", which are people who are not only wealthy and employed in professional occupations, but highly educated to boot. Urban sophisticates have urbane tastes - whether they reside in a big or small city, a suburb, or a little town. Urban sophisticates support bookstores, quality clothing stores, enjoy luxury travel, and in big cities, they are truly the patrons of the arts, attending and supporting institutions such as opera, symphony, ballet, and theatre.
The overall crime rate in Indian Shores is one of the lowest in the US. This makes it one of the safer places to live in the country in terms of crime.
Indian Shores is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Quite often, nautical areas such as these attract visitors and locals who come to enjoy the scenery and various waterfront activities.
