Oriole Beach, FL population, income and ZIP codes

Oriole Beach CDP is a small town in Florida, with 2,146 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #671 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 29% of them. The median age here is 38.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Oriole Beach CDP earn a median of $87,056 a year, 10.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% 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 1.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Oriole Beach CDP is valued at $346,600, 14.2% above the national figure and 14% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,578 a month, 12.2% above the national figure, or roughly $18,936 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.8% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 76.4% 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.

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.
