Quincy, FL population, income and ZIP codes

Quincy city is a mid-size town in Florida, with 7,818 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #377 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 60% of them. The median age here is 34.4 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 Quincy city earn a median of $34,126 a year, 56.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 50% below 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 43.7% 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 Quincy city is valued at $101,700, 66.5% below the national figure and 67% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,022 a month, 27.3% below the national figure, or roughly $12,264 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 35.9% 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 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 58.6% 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.

Quincy city is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 35.9% of median income while homes cost only 3× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price.
