A relatively large number of people in Raymond telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 28.19% 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.

Is Raymond perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea.
