Powhatan, LA population, income and ZIP codes

Powhatan village is a very small community in Louisiana, with 27 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #483 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 1% of them. The median age here is 58.4 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 Powhatan village earn a median of not published a year. 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 7.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Powhatan village is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 41.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 58.4 puts Powhatan village well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 27 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Powhatan village against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, home value, gross rent for Powhatan village because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
