In 2000 nobody works on the land and most adults travel by car to work outside the village. However, thanks to information technology, a surprising number of villagers do still work at home, although instead of making lace, straw hats and baskets they now use keyboards, mouse mats, and faxes to move information about. Two people work in Willen itself, one in the hospice and the other in the modern school.
The following jobs are done (or were done by people who have now retired) by modern villagers :
