River Ridge CDP, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

River Ridge CDP is a mid-size town in Florida, with 5,191 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #470 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 50% of them. The median age here is 48.6 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 River Ridge CDP earn a median of $86,786 a year, 10.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 26% above the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. 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 8.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in River Ridge CDP is valued at $303,400, essentially level with the national figure and within a couple of points of the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,058 a month, 46.4% above the national figure, or roughly $24,696 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.5% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
