Red Wing is a medium-sized city located in the state of Minnesota. With a population of 16,756 people and four associated neighborhoods, Red Wing is the 67th largest community in Minnesota.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 7.49% 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 city 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, Red Wing is worth considering.

In terms of college education, Red Wing is somewhat better educated than the 21.84% who have a 4-year degree or higher in the typical US community: 26.21% of adults 25 and older in the city have at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Red Wing in 2022 was $40,467, which is upper middle income relative to Minnesota and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $161,868 for a family of four. However, Red Wing contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
