Boyle town, MS in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Boyle town is a very small community in Mississippi, with 641 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #246 of 427 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 39.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Boyle town earn a median of $39,926 a year, 49.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 10% below the $44,178 median for the 191 Mississippi cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 22.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Boyle town is valued at $141,000, 53.5% below the national figure and 16% above the $121,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $821 a month, 41.6% below the national figure, or roughly $9,852 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.7% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 72.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
