Bonnieville city, KY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bonnieville city is a very small community in Kentucky, with 287 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #427 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 22% of them. The median age here is 27.9 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 Bonnieville city earn a median of $35,625 a year, 54.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 36% below 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 49.4% 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 Bonnieville city is valued at $89,000, 70.7% below the national figure and 43% below the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 67.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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 27.9 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 287 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Bonnieville city against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Bonnieville city 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.
