West Little River, FL population, income and ZIP codes

West Little River CDP is a small city in Florida, with 33,147 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #127 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 41.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 West Little River CDP earn a median of $51,834 a year, 34% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% below 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 19.7% 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 West Little River CDP is valued at $293,400, 3.3% below the national figure and 4% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,411 a month, essentially level with the national figure, or roughly $16,932 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.7% 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 5.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 61.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
