Lakemont is a very small town located in the state of Georgia. With a population of 2,763 people and two associated neighborhoods, Lakemont is the 231st largest community in Georgia.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 16.14% 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 Lakemont 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.

Lakemont 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, Lakemont’s overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the country, making it one of the safest places to raise a family.

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!) Lakemont 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. Lakemont has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Lakemont than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Lakemont may be for you.
