Zuni is a somewhat small town located in the state of New Mexico. With a population of 6,176 people and three associated neighborhoods, Zuni is the 35th largest community in New Mexico.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 26.94% 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 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, Zuni is worth considering.
Zuni ranks among the bottom of the nation in terms of college education compared to other cities and towns: only 4.94% of people over 25 have a college degree.

However, Zuni contains both very wealthy and poor people as well. Zuni also has one of the higher rates of people living in poverty in the nation, with 30.37% of its population below the federal poverty line.
