Wilmington Manor CDP, DE in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Wilmington Manor CDP is a mid-size town in Delaware, with 8,030 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #15 of 79 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 41.1 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 Wilmington Manor CDP earn a median of $72,346 a year, 7.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% below the $75,000 median for the 54 Delaware 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 11% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Wilmington Manor CDP is valued at $220,400, 27.4% below the national figure and 21% below the $280,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,120 a month, 20.3% below the national figure, or roughly $13,440 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.6% 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 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 75.1% 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.
