Poplar Grove, AR population, income and ZIP codes

Poplar Grove CDP is a very small community in Arkansas, with 113 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #513 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 17% of them. The median age here is 60 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Poplar Grove CDP earn a median of $116,161 a year, 47.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 136% above the $49,306 median for the 209 Arkansas cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 2.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Poplar Grove CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 100% 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.

A median age of 60 puts Poplar Grove CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 113 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Poplar Grove CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Poplar Grove 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.
