Philadelphia is a tiny city located in the state of Tennessee. With a population of 682 people and two associated neighborhoods, Philadelphia is the 323rd largest community in Tennessee.Unlike some cities where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Philadelphia is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Philadelphia is a city of sales and office workers, service providers, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Philadelphia who work in management occupations (16.89%), office and administrative support (15.20%), and sales jobs (10.81%). Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 7.43% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. 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.
