Clinton town, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Clinton town is a small town in Louisiana, with 1,100 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #265 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 45% of them. The median age here is 46.1 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.

Households in Clinton town earn a median of $55,595 a year, 29.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% above the $53,775 median for the 268 Louisiana cities we cover. 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. Poverty reaches 14.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Clinton town is valued at $224,100, 26.1% below the national figure and 30% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,017 a month, 27.7% below the national figure, or roughly $12,204 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 61.2% 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.
