Elverta CDP, CA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Elverta CDP is a small town in California, with 4,252 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #696 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 47.7 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 Elverta CDP earn a median of $91,563 a year, 16.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 10.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Elverta CDP is valued at $455,500, 50.1% above the national figure and 23% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,544 a month, 9.8% above the national figure, or roughly $18,528 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 82.9% 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. 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
