Hopkinton CDP, MA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Hopkinton CDP is a small town in Massachusetts, with 3,142 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #150 of 248 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 50.2 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 Hopkinton CDP earn a median of $173,750 a year, 121.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 75% above the $99,537 median for the 222 Massachusetts 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 3.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Hopkinton CDP is valued at $601,900, 98.4% above the national figure and 21% above the $497,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,053 a month, 25.1% below the national figure, or roughly $12,636 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 7.3% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.1% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 50.2 puts Hopkinton CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.

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.
