Hollywood is a somewhat small town located in the state of South Carolina. With a population of 5,503 people and three associated neighborhoods, Hollywood is the 74th largest community in South Carolina. Much of the housing stock in Hollywood was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Hollywood economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Hollywood, where the median household income is $73,693.00.
Hollywood real estate is some of the most expensive in South Carolina, although Hollywood house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.
A relatively large number of people in Hollywood telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 15.24% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. 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.
Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Hollywood is worth considering.
One downside of living in Hollywood, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 35.58 minutes every day commuting to work.
As is often the case in a small town, Hollywood doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
In terms of college education, Hollywood is substantially better educated than the typical community in the nation, which has 21.84% of the adults holding a bachelor's degree or graduate degree: 32.08% of adults in Hollywood have a college degree.
The per capita income in Hollywood in 2022 was $43,539, which is wealthy relative to South Carolina, and upper middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $174,156 for a family of four. However, Hollywood contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
