Fern Park CDP, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Fern Park CDP is a mid-size town in Florida, with 8,593 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #364 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 39.3 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 Fern Park CDP earn a median of $60,828 a year, 22.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 11% below 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 10.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Fern Park CDP is valued at $321,400, 5.9% above the national figure and 5% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,440 a month, 2.4% above the national figure, or roughly $17,280 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.4% 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 5.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 57.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
