Woodmere CDP, LA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Woodmere CDP is a mid-size town in Louisiana, with 11,775 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #44 of 489 ranked by population — larger than 91% of them. The median age here is 36.9 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 Woodmere CDP earn a median of $73,615 a year, 6.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 37% above the $53,775 median for the 268 Louisiana cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 12.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Woodmere CDP is valued at $187,000, 38.4% below the national figure and 8% above the $173,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,374 a month, 2.3% below the national figure, or roughly $16,488 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.4% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.5% 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.
