Newington CDP, CT in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Newington CDP is a small city in Connecticut, with 30,551 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #21 of 215 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 45.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Newington CDP earn a median of $98,585 a year, 25.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $96,484 median for the 159 Connecticut 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 7.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Newington CDP is valued at $279,900, 7.7% below the national figure and 19% below the $344,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,487 a month, 5.8% above the national figure, or roughly $17,844 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.1% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 78.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
