Schofield Barracks CDP, HI in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Schofield Barracks CDP is a mid-size town in Hawaii, with 16,755 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #17 of 163 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 22.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Schofield Barracks CDP earn a median of $74,695 a year, 4.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $92,062 median for the 124 Hawaii cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Schofield Barracks CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $3,192 a month, 127% above the national figure, or roughly $38,304 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 51.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is severely stretched — a median-income renter clears the cost-burden line by a wide margin before utilities beyond the gross-rent definition. 0.2% 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.
A median age of 22.8 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.
The Census withheld home value for Schofield Barracks 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.
