Hustonville, KY population, income and ZIP codes

Hustonville city is a very small community in Kentucky, with 600 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #326 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 41% of them. The median age here is 44.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Hustonville city earn a median of $40,625 a year, 48.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% 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 24% 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 Hustonville city is valued at $121,600, 59.9% below the national figure and 23% below the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $358 a month, 74.5% below the national figure, or roughly $4,296 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 10.6% 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 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 78.8% 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.

With 600 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Hustonville city against its county rather than against national figures.
