Parks village, LA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Parks village is a very small community in Louisiana, with 838 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #293 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 40% of them. The median age here is 34.1 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 Parks village earn a median of $66,250 a year, 15.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% 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 13.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Parks village is valued at $162,500, 46.4% below the national figure and 6% below the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $518 a month, 63.2% below the national figure, or roughly $6,216 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 9.4% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 87.6% 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.
