Elkmont is a tiny town located in the state of Alabama. With a population of 444 people and two associated neighborhoods, Elkmont is the 350th largest community in Alabama. Elkmont has an unusually large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic towns.

Also of interest is that Elkmont has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 10.53% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. 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 town 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, Elkmont is worth considering.

One downside of living in Elkmont, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 31.47 minutes every day commuting to work.

As is often the case in a small town, Elkmont doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.

The per capita income in Elkmont in 2022 was $38,619, which is wealthy relative to Alabama, and upper middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $154,476 for a family of four. However, Elkmont contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
