Epps village, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Epps village is a very small community in Louisiana, with 529 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #352 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 28% of them. The median age here is 40.5 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 Epps village earn a median of $51,528 a year, 34.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% below 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 9.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Epps village is valued at $74,400, 75.5% below the national figure and 57% below the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $879 a month, 37.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,548 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.5% 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 1.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 79% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
