Malabar Profile


Overview

Malabar 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 3,018 people and just one neighborhood, Malabar is the 345th largest community in Florida.

Housing costs in Malabar are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Florida.

Occupations and Workforce

Unlike some towns, Malabar isn’t mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Malabar are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Malabar is a town of sales and office workers, professionals, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Malabar who work in office and administrative support (13.35%), sales jobs (11.25%), and business and financial occupations (10.23%).

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

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 13.61% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. 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

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, Malabar is worth considering.

Malabar 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. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

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

Malabar Demographics

In terms of college education, Malabar is substantially better educated than the typical community in the nation, which has 21.84% of the adults holding a bachelor's degree or graduate degree: 33.07% of adults in Malabar have a college degree.

The per capita income in Malabar in 2018 was $41,092, which is upper middle income relative to Florida, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $164,368 for a family of four.

Malabar is a somewhat ethnically-diverse town. The people who call Malabar home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Malabar residents report their race to be White, followed by Black or African-American. Important ancestries of people in Malabar include German, English, Irish, Italian, and Polish.

The most common language spoken in Malabar is English. Other important languages spoken here include Italian and Polish.
