Living in Albion



Albion is a somewhat small village located in the state of New York. With a population of 5,651 people and five associated neighborhoods, Albion is the 290th largest community in New York. Albion has a large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic villages in the country.

A relatively large number of people in Albion telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 9.72% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. 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.
