Leesburg, AL population, income and ZIP codes

Leesburg town is a very small community in Alabama, with 813 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #358 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 36.2 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 Leesburg town earn a median of $53,472 a year, 31.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% below 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 11.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Leesburg town is valued at $169,200, 44.2% below the national figure and 7% above the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $785 a month, 44.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,420 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.6% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 68.8% 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.

With 813 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Leesburg town against its county rather than against national figures.
