South Vinemont, AL population, income and ZIP codes

South Vinemont town is a very small community in Alabama, with 872 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #344 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 32.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 South Vinemont town earn a median of $49,674 a year, 36.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 11% below the $55,687 median for the 322 Alabama cities we cover. 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. Poverty reaches 29.2% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in South Vinemont town is valued at $158,300, 47.8% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $158,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $725 a month, 48.4% below the national figure, or roughly $8,700 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.5% 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. 56.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 872 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare South Vinemont town against its county rather than against national figures.
