Hudson, MA population, income and ZIP codes

Hudson CDP is a mid-size town in Massachusetts, with 15,610 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #79 of 248 ranked by population — larger than 68% of them. The median age here is 44.3 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 Hudson CDP earn a median of $96,149 a year, 22.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 3% below 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 5.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Hudson CDP is valued at $457,400, 50.8% above the national figure and 8% below the $497,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,417 a month, essentially level with the national figure, or roughly $17,004 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 4.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 70.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
