Hull CDP, MA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Hull CDP is a mid-size town in Massachusetts, with 10,098 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #89 of 248 ranked by population — larger than 64% of them. The median age here is 55.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Hull CDP earn a median of $127,112 a year, 61.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 28% above the $99,537 median for the 222 Massachusetts 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Hull CDP is valued at $606,100, 99.8% above the national figure and 22% above the $497,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,885 a month, 34.1% above the national figure, or roughly $22,620 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.8% 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. 81.1% 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 55.1 puts Hull 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.
