Mountain Pine, AR population, income and ZIP codes

Mountain Pine city is a very small community in Arkansas, with 589 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #274 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 56% of them. The median age here is 39.9 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 Mountain Pine city earn a median of $46,250 a year, 41.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% below the $49,306 median for the 209 Arkansas cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 16.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mountain Pine city is valued at $46,500, 84.7% below the national figure and 64% below the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $609 a month, 56.7% below the national figure, or roughly $7,308 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.8% 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 1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 75.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
