Living in Middlesex



Middlesex is a tiny town located in the state of North Carolina. With a population of 939 people and three associated neighborhoods, Middlesex is the 410th largest community in North Carolina.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 8.62% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. 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 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, Middlesex is worth considering.

Middlesex is a small town, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.

In Middlesex, just 11.76% of people have at least a bachelor's degree, which is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%.

The per capita income in Middlesex in 2022 was $25,989, which is lower middle income relative to North Carolina and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $103,956 for a family of four. However, Middlesex contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
