Bon Secour CDP, AL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bon Secour CDP is a small town in Alabama, with 3,094 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #167 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 71% of them. The median age here is 38.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Bon Secour CDP earn a median of $60,833 a year, 22.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% above the $55,687 median for the 322 Alabama cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 17.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Bon Secour CDP is valued at $266,100, 12.3% below the national figure and 68% above the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 65.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
The Census withheld gross rent for Bon Secour CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
