Kendall West CDP, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Kendall West CDP is a small city in Florida, with 35,492 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #122 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 45.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Kendall West CDP earn a median of $66,858 a year, 14.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% below the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 13.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Kendall West CDP is valued at $377,800, 24.5% above the national figure and 24% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,755 a month, 24.8% above the national figure, or roughly $21,060 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 52.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
