Harvest is a somewhat small town located in the state of Alabama. With a population of 5,893 people and six associated neighborhoods, Harvest is the 108th largest community in Alabama. Much of the housing stock in Harvest was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Harvest economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents.

Harvest real estate is some of the most expensive in Alabama, although Harvest house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 8.26% 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.

Because of many things, Harvest is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Harvest really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Harvest perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
