West Canaveral Groves, FL population, income and ZIP codes

West Canaveral Groves CDP is a very small community in Florida, with 198 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #917 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 3% of them. The median age here is 31.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 West Canaveral Groves CDP earn a median of $51,577 a year, 34.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 25% 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 11.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in West Canaveral Groves CDP is valued at $328,900, 8.4% above the national figure and 8% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 6.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 22.2% 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.

Home values sit at 6.4× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere. With 198 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare West Canaveral Groves CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for West Canaveral Groves CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
