Of important note, Linden is also a town of artists. Linden has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Linden’s character.

Setting & Lifestyle

The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy.

In Linden, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 34.17 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.

Linden is a small town, and as is often the case with smaller towns, the population isn't large or dense enough to support much in the way of a public transportation system. In fact, there are many rural roads around Linden, which makes walking or biking to and from work a bit difficult. This makes for a very car-oriented town: 100.00% of residents commute to work by private automobile, and people often drive out of town for work, shopping, and other activities.

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