Grapeview is a tiny coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Washington. With a population of 991 people and two associated neighborhoods, Grapeview is the 267th largest community in Washington.

Housing costs in Grapeview are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Washington.

A relatively large number of people in Grapeview telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 19.60% 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.

Another notable thing is that Grapeview is a major vacation destination. Much of the town’s population is seasonal: many people own second homes and only live there part-time, during the vacation season. The effect on the local economy is that many of the businesses are dependent on tourist dollars, and may operate only during the high season. As the vacation season ends, Grapeview’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

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

One of the nice things about Grapeview is that it is nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.

In Grapeview, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 45.58 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.

As is often the case in a small town, Grapeview doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.

The education level of Grapeview citizens is substantially higher than the typical US community, as 32.34% of adults in Grapeview have at least a bachelor's degree.
