North Carrollton, MS population, income and ZIP codes

North Carrollton town is a very small community in Mississippi, with 544 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #257 of 427 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 33.4 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 North Carrollton town earn a median of $16,914 a year, 78.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 62% 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 54.2% 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 North Carrollton town is valued at $107,800, 64.5% below the national figure and 11% below the $121,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 6.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 58% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Home values sit at 6.4× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere. With 544 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare North Carrollton town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for North Carrollton town 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.
