Beechmont CDP, KY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Beechmont CDP is a very small community in Kentucky, with 940 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #254 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 29.1 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 Beechmont CDP earn a median of $54,400 a year, 30.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $55,469 median for the 246 Kentucky 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 13.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Beechmont CDP is valued at $162,200, 46.5% below the national figure and 3% above the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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 29.1 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 940 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Beechmont CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Beechmont 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.
