Boynton Beach, FL population, income and ZIP codes

Boynton Beach city is a small city in Florida, with 80,601 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #42 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 42.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.

Households in Boynton Beach city earn a median of $71,378 a year, 9.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% above the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 11.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Boynton Beach city is valued at $312,700, 3.1% above the national figure and within a couple of points of the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,896 a month, 34.9% above the national figure, or roughly $22,752 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.9% 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 4.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 63.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
