Beverly city, MA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Beverly city is a small city in Massachusetts, with 42,408 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #33 of 248 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 39.5 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 Beverly city earn a median of $103,739 a year, 32.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 4% above the $99,537 median for the 222 Massachusetts cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 9.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Beverly city is valued at $621,900, 105% above the national figure and 25% above the $497,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,683 a month, 19.7% above the national figure, or roughly $20,196 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.5% 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 6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 60.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
