Living in Cleveland



Cleveland is a somewhat small city located in the state of Texas. With a population of 8,503 people and 12 associated neighborhoods, Cleveland is the 302nd largest community in Texas.

A relatively large number of people in Cleveland telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 9.68% 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.

Residents will find that the city 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, Cleveland is worth considering.

One downside of living in Cleveland, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 30.63 minutes every day commuting to work.

Being a small city, Cleveland does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

In Cleveland, just 12.58% of people have at least a bachelor's degree, which is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%.

The per capita income in Cleveland in 2018 was $22,652, which is low income relative to Texas and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $90,608 for a family of four. However, Cleveland contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
