Rolling Hills city, KY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Rolling Hills city is a small town in Kentucky, with 1,024 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #244 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 56% of them. The median age here is 36 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Rolling Hills city earn a median of $99,412 a year, 26.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 79% 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 11.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Rolling Hills city is valued at $274,500, 9.5% below the national figure and 75% above the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $896 a month, 36.3% below the national figure, or roughly $10,752 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 10.8% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 72.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
