One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 14.21% of the workforce.

Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Edgewood has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Edgewood has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Edgewood than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here.
