Bolivia is a tiny coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of North Carolina. With a population of 227 people and three associated neighborhoods, Bolivia is the 567th largest community in North Carolina. Much of the housing stock in Bolivia was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Bolivia economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Bolivia, where the median household income is $71,000.00.

Also of interest is that Bolivia 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: 14.63% 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.

Bolivia is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families. The town’s good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic success. Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Bolivia’s overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

Bolivia is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

In Bolivia, however, the average commute to work is quite long. On average, people spend 30.21 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average.

Being a small town, Bolivia does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

If knowledge is power, Bolivia is a pretty powerful place. 53.13% of the adults in Bolivia have earned a 4-year college degree, masters degree, MD, law degree, or even PhD. Compare that to the national average of 21.84% for all cities and towns.

The per capita income in Bolivia in 2022 was $25,196, which is lower middle income relative to North Carolina, and low income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $100,784 for a family of four. However, Bolivia contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

Bolivia is a somewhat ethnically-diverse town. The people who call Bolivia home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Bolivia residents report their race to be White, followed by Black or African-American. Bolivia also has a sizeable Hispanic population (people of Hispanic origin can be of any race). People of Hispanic or Latino origin account for 13.33% of the town’s residents. Important ancestries of people in Bolivia include Irish, German, French, English, and Welsh.

The most common language spoken in Bolivia is English. Other important languages spoken here include Spanish and African languages.
