Gibsonton, FL population, income and ZIP codes

Gibsonton CDP is a mid-size town in Florida, with 18,831 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #215 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 33.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Gibsonton CDP earn a median of $74,049 a year, 5.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% above the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida 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 19.8% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Gibsonton CDP is valued at $274,300, 9.6% below the national figure and 10% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,286 a month, 8.5% below the national figure, or roughly $15,432 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.8% 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 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 69% 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
