Choudrant village, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Choudrant village is a small town in Louisiana, with 1,382 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #239 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 51% of them. The median age here is 38 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 Choudrant village earn a median of $58,281 a year, 25.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% above the $53,775 median for the 268 Louisiana 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 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Choudrant village is valued at $286,500, 5.6% below the national figure and 66% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $934 a month, 33.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,208 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.2% 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 4.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 54.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
