Jamestown is a very small village located in the state of Ohio. With a population of 2,114 people and two associated neighborhoods, Jamestown is the 459th largest community in Ohio. Jamestown has an unusually large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic villages.
Also of interest is that Jamestown 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: 7.33% 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.
As is often the case in a small village, Jamestown doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
The percentage of adults in Jamestown with college degrees is slightly lower than the national average of 21.84% for all communities. 15.88% of adults in Jamestown have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.
