Venice is a medium-sized coastal city (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Florida. With a population of 27,272 people and 24 associated neighborhoods, Venice is the 126th largest community in Florida.

Of important note, Venice is also a city of artists. Venice has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Venice’s character.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 20.59% 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.

One of the nice things about Venice is that it is nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.
