Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 33.33% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. 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 Bracey 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!) Bracey 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. Bracey has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Bracey than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Bracey may be for you.
