Residents experience a relatively stable job market, mainly in sectors such as retail and construction, contributing to an overall improvement in household income. However, limited public transportation and higher crime rates can negatively impact community safety and accessibility to essential services, which often contributes to heightened stress and mental health challenges among residents.

Fortunately, Walker offers a variety of vetted mental health resources tailored to meet the needs of its residents.
