Of important note, Longville is also a city of artists. Longville has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Longville’s character.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 14.00% 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.

Another notable thing is that Longville is a major vacation destination. Much of the city’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, Longville’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.
