Grosse Pointe Park, MI population, income and ZIP codes

Grosse Pointe Park city is a mid-size town in Michigan, with 11,394 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #92 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 40.5 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.
