Moss Bluff CDP, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Moss Bluff CDP is a mid-size town in Louisiana, with 11,451 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #48 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 44.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Moss Bluff CDP earn a median of $85,984 a year, 9.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 60% 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 12.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Moss Bluff CDP is valued at $242,300, 20.1% below the national figure and 40% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,303 a month, 7.3% below the national figure, or roughly $15,636 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.2% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.8% 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.

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.
