Living in Cleveland



Cleveland is a somewhat small city located in the state of Texas. With a population of 8,503 people and 12 associated neighborhoods, Cleveland is the 302nd largest community in Texas.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 9.68% 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.

It is a fairly quiet city 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!) Cleveland 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. Cleveland has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Cleveland than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Cleveland may be for you.

One downside of living in Cleveland, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 30.63 minutes every day commuting to work.

Being a small city, Cleveland does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

In Cleveland, just 12.58% of people have at least a bachelor's degree, which is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%.

The per capita income in Cleveland in 2022 was $22,652, which is low income relative to Texas and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $90,608 for a family of four. However, Cleveland contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

Cleveland is an extremely ethnically-diverse city. The people who call Cleveland home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Cleveland residents report their race to be White, followed by Black or African-American. Cleveland also has a sizeable Hispanic population (people of Hispanic origin can be of any race). People of Hispanic or Latino origin account for 32.72% of the city’s residents.
