Hollywood is a somewhat small town located in the state of South Carolina. With a population of 5,503 people and three associated neighborhoods, Hollywood is the 74th largest community in South Carolina. Much of the housing stock in Hollywood was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Hollywood economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Hollywood, where the median household income is $77,415.00. Hollywood home prices are not only among the most expensive in South Carolina, but Hollywood real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Hollywood is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Hollywood is a town of professionals, sales and office workers, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Hollywood who work in office and administrative support (11.50%), maintenance occupations (11.13%), and management occupations (10.77%). One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.92% 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. The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Hollywood has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Hollywood a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here. One downside of living in Hollywood, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 34.84 minutes every day commuting to work. Being a small town, Hollywood does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.The overall education level of Hollywood citizens is substantially higher than the typical US community, as 33.55% of adults in Hollywood have at least a bachelor's degree, and the average American community has 21.84%. The per capita income in Hollywood in 2022 was $49,440, which is wealthy relative to South Carolina and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $197,760 for a family of four. However, Hollywood contains both very wealthy and poor people as well. Hollywood is an extremely ethnically-diverse town.
