Orchard Grass Hills city, KY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Orchard Grass Hills city is a small town in Kentucky, with 2,008 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #172 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 30.6 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 Orchard Grass Hills city earn a median of $105,417 a year, 34.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 90% above the $55,469 median for the 246 Kentucky cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 6.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Orchard Grass Hills city is valued at $261,100, 13.9% below the national figure and 66% above the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,904 a month, 35.4% above the national figure, or roughly $22,848 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. 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. 82.4% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
