Oak Ridge CDP, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Oak Ridge CDP is a mid-size town in Florida, with 24,395 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #176 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 33.3 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 Oak Ridge CDP earn a median of $53,389 a year, 32% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% below the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 26.3% 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 Oak Ridge CDP is valued at $235,500, 22.4% below the national figure and 23% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,404 a month, essentially level with the national figure, or roughly $16,848 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.6% 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 4.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 34.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.
