Fruit Cove CDP, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Fruit Cove CDP is a small city in Florida, with 35,609 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #121 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 41.8 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 Fruit Cove CDP earn a median of $137,906 a year, 75.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 101% 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 3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Fruit Cove CDP is valued at $451,600, 48.8% above the national figure and 48% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,261 a month, 60.8% above the national figure, or roughly $27,132 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.7% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 85.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
