Mio is a very small town located in the state of Michigan. With a population of 1,690 people and three associated neighborhoods, Mio is the 388th largest community in Michigan.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 10.63% 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 Mio is an extremely popular destination for tourists and seasonal residents. So much of the population is seasonal such that the town’s population swells significantly during the vacation season, and drops again when the season ends. Because of this, much of the local economy is centered around tourism; some businesses may be operated only during the high season. During the low season, year-round residents will notice that the city is a substantially 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, Mio is worth considering.
Being a small town, Mio does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
The percentage of adults in Mio who are college-educated is close to the national average for all communities of 21.84%: 20.33% of the adults in Mio have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.
