Gold Hill is a very small city located in the state of Oregon. With a population of 1,330 people and two associated neighborhoods, Gold Hill is the 177th largest community in Oregon.
Housing costs in Gold Hill are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Oregon.
Also of interest is that Gold Hill has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.00% 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.
Residents will find that the city 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, Gold Hill is worth considering.
As is often the case in a small city, Gold Hill doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
The percentage of people in Gold Hill with college degrees is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%: just 10.05% of people over 25 have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.
