Paradise is a tiny town located in the state of Michigan. With a population of 973 people and two associated neighborhoods, Paradise is the 472nd largest community in Michigan.

Also of interest is that Paradise 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: 23.21% 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 Paradise 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 town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Paradise has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Paradise a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.

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

The population of Paradise overall has a level of education that is slightly above the US average for all US cities and towns of 21.84%. Of adults 25 and older in Paradise, 24.84% have at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Paradise in 2022 was $33,955, which is middle income relative to Michigan and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $135,820 for a family of four. However, Paradise contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
