Paradise is a tiny town located in the state of Michigan. With a population of 971 people and two associated neighborhoods, Paradise is the 472nd largest community in Michigan.

Also of interest is that Paradise has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

A relatively large number of people in Paradise telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 25.29% 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 Paradise 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, Paradise’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

Residents will find that the town 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, Paradise is worth considering.

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

The percentage of adults in Paradise who are college-educated is close to the national average for all communities of 21.84%: 20.69% of the adults in Paradise have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.

The per capita income in Paradise in 2022 was $31,693, which is middle income relative to Michigan and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $126,772 for a family of four. However, Paradise contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
