Comstock Park CDP, MI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Comstock Park CDP is a mid-size town in Michigan, with 10,306 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #99 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 33.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Comstock Park CDP earn a median of $54,871 a year, 30.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 11% below the $61,715 median for the 438 Michigan 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 11.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Comstock Park CDP is valued at $216,600, 28.6% below the national figure and 30% above the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,070 a month, 23.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,840 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 52.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

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.
