Nellieburg CDP, MS in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Nellieburg CDP is a small town in Mississippi, with 1,297 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #175 of 427 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 40.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Nellieburg CDP earn a median of $24,227 a year, 69.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 45% below 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 54.5% 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 Nellieburg CDP is valued at $120,200, 60.4% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $121,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $785 a month, 44.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,420 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 38.9% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 73.4% 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.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
