Moores Mill CDP, AL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Moores Mill CDP is a mid-size town in Alabama, with 6,041 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #102 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 44.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Moores Mill CDP earn a median of $86,902 a year, 10.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 56% 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 11.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Moores Mill CDP is valued at $243,800, 19.6% below the national figure and 54% above the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,235 a month, 12.2% below the national figure, or roughly $14,820 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.1% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.3% 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
