Banning city, CA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Banning city is a small city in California, with 30,680 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #267 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 83% of them. The median age here is 43.3 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 Banning city earn a median of $57,699 a year, 26.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 37% below the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California 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 19% 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 Banning city is valued at $322,900, 6.4% above the national figure and 45% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,528 a month, 8.7% above the national figure, or roughly $18,336 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 71.5% 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.
