Leavenworth is a tiny town located in the state of Indiana. With a population of 233 people and just one neighborhood, Leavenworth is the 430th largest community in Indiana. Leavenworth has a large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic towns in the country.
Leavenworth is a blue-collar town, with 54.39% of people working in blue-collar occupations, while the average in America is just 27.7%. Overall, Leavenworth is a town of service providers, production and manufacturing workers, and construction workers and builders. There are especially a lot of people living in Leavenworth who work in food service (11.40%), healthcare suport services (9.65%), and maintenance occupations (7.02%).
Another notable thing is that Leavenworth is an extremely popular destination for tourists and seasonal residents. So much of the population is seasonal such that the town’s population swells significantly during the vacation season, and drops again when the season ends. Because of this, much of the local economy is centered around tourism; some businesses may be operated only during the high season. During the low season, year-round residents will notice that the city is a substantially quieter place to live.
The overall crime rate in Leavenworth 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.
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, Leavenworth is worth considering.
One downside of living in Leavenworth, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 32.26 minutes every day commuting to work.
Leavenworth is a very car-oriented town. 98.11% of residents commute to work in a private automobile rather than by other means, such as public transit, bicycling, or walking. This is because Leavenworth is a small town , and most people who live here have to drive out of town for work, and the town population is not large nor dense enough to support an extensive public transportation system. Leavenworth has a lot of rural roads, and houses can be far apart. Many residents drive out of town for regular shopping trips as well.
Being a small town, Leavenworth does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
