Folsom village, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Folsom village is a very small community in Louisiana, with 722 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #307 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 45.6 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 Folsom village earn a median of $46,094 a year, 41.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 14% 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 10.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Folsom village is valued at $269,600, 11.1% below the national figure and 56% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $579 a month, 58.8% below the national figure, or roughly $6,948 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.1% 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 5.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 73.9% 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.

With 722 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Folsom village against its county rather than against national figures.
