Living in Willis



Willis is a somewhat small town located in the state of Virginia. With a population of 5,346 people and two associated neighborhoods, Willis is the 119th largest community in Virginia.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 7.26% 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 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, Willis is worth considering.

In Willis, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 34.64 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.

As is often the case in a small town, Willis doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.

The education level of Willis citizens, measured as those with bachelor's degrees or advanced degrees, is similar to the national average for all American cities and towns. 18.76% of adults 25 and older in Willis have a college degree.

The per capita income in Willis in 2022 was $33,319, which is middle income relative to Virginia and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $133,276 for a family of four. However, Willis contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
