East End CDP, AR in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
East End CDP is a mid-size town in Arkansas, with 6,344 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #58 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 43.6 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 East End CDP earn a median of $77,122 a year, 1.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 56% 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 8.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in East End CDP is valued at $206,000, 32.1% below the national figure and 60% above the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $953 a month, 32.2% below the national figure, or roughly $11,436 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.8% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 78.1% 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.
