That's a good point, Jaune never said that his family was full of hunters but he said "heroes", I think that's enough proof to say that they were hunters or at least had a decent job involved in fighting but Jaune's outfit clearly says: "average". If that's the case, I can't hardly see Jaune's family as the rich type since his pants have a hole so his belongings are probably hand-me-downs.

I think that Hunters are not in town because they are fighting Grimm right now. The map shows that there are four kingdoms but these places are small compared to the rest of Remnant. The Hunters are probably fighting right now in those places with little civilitation to allow the rest of humanity to expand their lands further. For example, to allow Menagerie to exist, a lot of Grimm had to be killed, that's a job for a Hunter.

I think that Hunters are send in groups to certain locations to eliminate Grimm and that's why they need a team. For example, there is a heavy outbreak of Grimm at the outsides of Vale, to the east. Three teams are send to eliminate the threat and once they are over the goverment pays each team a certain amount of money. Or for example, Weiss had a picture of Forever Fall, but how was the author able to paint in such a dangerous place? Either she/he was a hunter or hired one to protect him.
