Longmeadow CDP, MA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Longmeadow CDP is a mid-size town in Massachusetts, with 15,724 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #78 of 248 ranked by population — larger than 68% of them. The median age here is 44.8 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 Longmeadow CDP earn a median of $144,639 a year, 84.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 45% 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 3.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Longmeadow CDP is valued at $425,800, 40.3% above the national figure and 14% below the $497,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,650 a month, 17.4% above the national figure, or roughly $19,800 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.7% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.9% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
