Ocean Park profile


Living in Ocean Park



Ocean Park is a very small coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Washington. With a population of 1,814 people and three associated neighborhoods, Ocean Park is the 225th largest community in Washington.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 13.85% 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.

Another notable thing is that Ocean Park is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller town.

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

One of the nice things about Ocean Park 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.

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