Elliott CDP, MS in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Elliott CDP is a very small community in Mississippi, with 645 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #244 of 427 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 52.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Elliott CDP earn a median of $55,595 a year, 29.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 26% above the $44,178 median for the 191 Mississippi 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 38.3% 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 Elliott CDP is valued at $54,800, 81.9% below the national figure and 55% below the $121,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 94% 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.

A median age of 52.7 puts Elliott 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. With 645 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Elliott CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Elliott CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
