Pollock Pines CDP, CA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Pollock Pines CDP is a mid-size town in California, with 6,056 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #611 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 62% of them. The median age here is 44.4 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 Pollock Pines CDP earn a median of $74,190 a year, 5.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California 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 17.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

A household on the local median income would put about 17.8% 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 5.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 69.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners.
