Schriever CDP, LA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Schriever CDP is a mid-size town in Louisiana, with 6,052 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #94 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 80% of them. The median age here is 34.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Schriever CDP earn a median of $58,950 a year, 24.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 10% 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 17.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Schriever CDP is valued at $176,200, 41.9% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $932 a month, 33.7% below the national figure, or roughly $11,184 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19% 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 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 71.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
