During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area.

The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Grapeview has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Grapeview a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.
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.
