Gramercy town, LA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Gramercy town is a small town in Louisiana, with 2,876 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #153 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 68% of them. The median age here is 36.7 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 Gramercy town earn a median of $66,475 a year, 15.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% above the $53,775 median for the 268 Louisiana 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 12.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Gramercy town is valued at $211,900, 30.2% below the national figure and 22% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,293 a month, 8% below the national figure, or roughly $15,516 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.3% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
