Seasonal opportunities in this affluent shore community are primarily driven by the tourism and hospitality sectors. Jobs range from restaurant staff and retail associates to lifeguards and recreation personnel. A smaller, year-round workforce supports essential municipal services and local businesses that cater to the resident population. This dynamic creates a unique job market characterized by peaks and valleys of activity throughout the year.
The influx of summer visitors generates significant economic activity, offering substantial short-term job prospects for students, retirees, and those seeking supplemental income. Beyond seasonal positions, permanent opportunities exist within local government, construction, and skilled trades. Historically, the borough’s economy has been closely tied to the maritime industry and tourism, influencing the types of available work and the skills sought by employers.
