Lowndesboro, AL population, income and ZIP codes

Lowndesboro town is a very small community in Alabama, with 108 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #550 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 7% of them. The median age here is 61.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Lowndesboro town earn a median of $68,625 a year, 12.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% above the $55,687 median for the 322 Alabama cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 1.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lowndesboro town is valued at $192,900, 36.4% below the national figure and 22% above the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 86.8% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 61.4 puts Lowndesboro town well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 108 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Lowndesboro town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Lowndesboro town 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.
