One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 9.38% 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.

Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Milwaukee is a popular destination for single career-starters. One thing that you will notice when you are out and about town is that there is a large population of people who are young, single, educated, and upwardly-mobile career starters out at restaurants, listening to live music, and enjoying other activities. They are a real visible part of the culture of Milwaukee. This makes Milwaukee a good place to live for young professionals. With so many people in this demographic, Milwaukee presents many opportunities for single professionals to enjoy themselves, socialize, and to create lasting relationships.

If you ask these commuters, many will tell you that not having to drive in the snarl of big city traffic is one of main reasons for leaving the car at home, or even not owning a car at all. With so many people taking the bus Milwaukee benefits from a reduction in air pollution and traffic.
