Gilbertsville, KY population, income and ZIP codes

Gilbertsville CDP is a very small community in Kentucky, with 405 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #383 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 30% of them. The median age here is 47.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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.

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.

The typical owner-occupied home in Gilbertsville CDP is valued at $101,100, 66.7% below the national figure and 36% below the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $657 a month, 53.3% below the national figure, or roughly $7,884 across a full year. 49.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

The Census withheld household income for Gilbertsville CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
