Centerton city, AR in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Centerton city is a mid-size town in Arkansas, with 20,212 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #24 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 32.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Centerton city earn a median of $112,920 a year, 43.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 129% above the $49,306 median for the 209 Arkansas 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 4.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Centerton city is valued at $295,500, 2.6% below the national figure and 129% above the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,436 a month, 2.1% above the national figure, or roughly $17,232 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.3% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 65.3% 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.
