Uniontown city, KS in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Uniontown city is a very small community in Kansas, with 492 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #298 of 740 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 18 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 Uniontown city earn a median of $51,750 a year, 34.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $63,750 median for the 200 Kansas 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 12.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Uniontown city is valued at $49,300, 83.8% below the national figure and 62% below the $131,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $752 a month, 46.5% below the national figure, or roughly $9,024 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 69.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 18 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. With 492 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Uniontown city against its county rather than against national figures.
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.
