Living in Dunnellon



Dunnellon is a very small coastal city (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Florida. With a population of 1,976 people and ten associated neighborhoods, Dunnellon is the 386th largest community in Florida.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 11.25% 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.

Residents will find that the city is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Dunnellon is worth considering.

One of the nice things about Dunnellon 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 city, Dunnellon doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
