Lebanon is a very small town located in the state of Virginia. With a population of 3,107 people and three associated neighborhoods, Lebanon is the 174th largest community in Virginia.
Also of interest is that Lebanon has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
A relatively large number of people in Lebanon telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 10.15% 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.
It is a fairly quiet town because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Lebanon has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Lebanon has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Lebanon than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Lebanon may be for you.
As is often the case in a small town, Lebanon doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
The rate of college-level education in Lebanon is quite a bit lower than the national average among all cities of 21.84%: just 11.47% of people here over 25 have a bachelor's degree or an advanced degree.
