Winslow CDP, ME in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Winslow CDP is a mid-size town in Maine, with 5,701 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #29 of 155 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 42.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Winslow CDP earn a median of $56,506 a year, 28.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% below the $58,992 median for the 106 Maine 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 9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Winslow CDP is valued at $200,100, 34% below the national figure and 10% below the $221,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $953 a month, 32.2% below the national figure, or roughly $11,436 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.2% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 64.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
