Prudenville is a very small town located in the state of Michigan. With a population of 1,643 people and two associated neighborhoods, Prudenville is the 393rd largest community in Michigan.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 14.44% 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 Prudenville 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.

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!) Prudenville 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.
