One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.50% of the workforce.

Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
The city is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy.
