Chuluota CDP, FL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Chuluota CDP is a small town in Florida, with 2,179 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #665 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 30% of them. The median age here is 36.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Chuluota CDP earn a median of $85,804 a year, 9.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 25% above the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida 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 18.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Chuluota CDP is valued at $371,400, 22.4% above the national figure and 22% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,605 a month, 14.2% above the national figure, or roughly $19,260 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.4% 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 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 72.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not.
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.
