Tolleshunt D'Arcy, Maldon: Jobs

Most people in Tolleshunt D'Arcy work in construction, retail, or health. What's striking is that over a third of residents work from home — a much higher share than you'd find in most places, which makes sense given how rural the neighbourhood is. Construction is the biggest employer by far, with 340 residents working in the sector. Retail and wholesale comes next with 311 workers, followed by health and social work with 205. Education and professional services each employ around 150 people. Working from home is actually the single most common arrangement here. Out of 2,156 workers, 790 do it regularly. For those who do commute, driving is by far the norm. Only 47 people use the train, which tells you plenty about how limited public transport options are. Agriculture still matters too, employing 60 residents — a modest but real presence in this rural neighbourhood.
