Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 14.01% 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 Marblehead is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal.

As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller village.

 

Marblehead is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families. The village’s good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic success. Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Marblehead’s overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

 

Residents will find that the village 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, Marblehead is worth considering.
