Kimberly city, AL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Kimberly city is a small town in Alabama, with 4,327 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #132 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 39.4 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 Kimberly city earn a median of $96,190 a year, 22.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 73% above the $55,687 median for the 322 Alabama cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 4.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Kimberly city is valued at $286,900, 5.4% below the national figure and 81% above the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,069 a month, 24% below the national figure, or roughly $12,828 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 95% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
