Redstone Arsenal, AL population, income and ZIP codes

Redstone Arsenal CDP is a very small community in Alabama, with 971 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #327 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 44% of them. The median age here is 41.3 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.

Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area.

The typical owner-occupied home in Redstone Arsenal CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $1,682 a month, 19.6% above the national figure, or roughly $20,184 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 2.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

The Census withheld home value for Redstone Arsenal CDP 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.
