Hastings, FL population, income and ZIP codes

Hastings CDP is a very small community in Florida, with 608 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #842 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 11% of them. The median age here is 55.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Hastings CDP earn a median of not published a year. 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 40% 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 Hastings CDP is valued at $205,300, 32.3% below the national figure and 33% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $911 a month, 35.2% below the national figure, or roughly $10,932 across a full year. 61.5% 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.

A median age of 55.6 puts Hastings CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 608 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Hastings CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income for Hastings CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
