Crystal Springs CDP, AR in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Crystal Springs CDP is a very small community in Arkansas, with 302 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #388 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 40.6 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.
Households in Crystal Springs CDP earn a median of $91,250 a year, 16.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 85% above the $49,306 median for the 209 Arkansas cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 9.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Crystal Springs CDP is valued at $261,000, 14% below the national figure and 102% above the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.9% 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. 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 302 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Crystal Springs CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Crystal Springs 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.
