Hollywood town, AL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Hollywood town is a very small community in Alabama, with 939 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #329 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 44% of them. The median age here is 44.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Hollywood town earn a median of $55,573 a year, 29.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $55,687 median for the 322 Alabama cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 13.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Hollywood town is valued at $102,900, 66.1% below the national figure and 35% below the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,065 a month, 24.3% below the national figure, or roughly $12,780 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 66.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
