Randolph CDP, ME in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Randolph CDP is a small town in Maine, with 1,479 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #84 of 155 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 49.9 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 Randolph CDP earn a median of $52,917 a year, 32.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 10% below the $58,992 median for the 106 Maine 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 20.9% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Randolph CDP is valued at $157,000, 48.3% below the national figure and 29% below the $221,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $779 a month, 44.6% below the national figure, or roughly $9,348 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.7% 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. 72.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
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.
