One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 13.66% 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.

Another notable thing is that Overgaard 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.

The overall crime rate in Overgaard is one of the lowest in the US. This makes it one of the safer places to live in the country in terms of crime.

For example, Overgaard has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Overgaard a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.

Being a small town, Overgaard does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
