The median age here is 33.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for Wheeler 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.
