Ravenden Springs town, AR in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Ravenden Springs town is a very small community in Arkansas, with 178 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #461 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 40.5 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 Ravenden Springs town earn a median of $44,773 a year, 43% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% below 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 21.9% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Ravenden Springs town is valued at $85,800, 71.7% below the national figure and 33% below the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $529 a month, 62.4% below the national figure, or roughly $6,348 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.2% 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 1.9×, 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. 51.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
