Anthoston CDP, KY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Anthoston CDP is a very small community in Kentucky, with 242 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #443 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 20% of them. The median age here is 27.1 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 Anthoston CDP earn a median of $41,734 a year, 46.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 25% below the $55,469 median for the 246 Kentucky 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 15.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Anthoston CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 33.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. 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.

A median age of 27.1 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 242 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Anthoston CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Anthoston 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.
