About this North Carolina directory
How North Carolina places are defined and measured.
This directory lists every place the US Census Bureau tabulates in North Carolina, ranked from the largest to the smallest by population. Incorporated cities, towns and villages appear alongside census-designated places (CDPs) — unincorporated communities that have no local government of their own but are counted separately because they have a recognised name and settled population. The suffix in each name ("city", "town", "village", "CDP") is the Census legal/statistical description, which is why you will see entries such as "Charlotte city".
The largest place in North Carolina is Charlotte city with 886,283 residents, and the 777 places on this page hold 6,600,402 people between them. Median household income across the listed places runs from $14,394 to $250,001, and median home values range from $9,999 to $1,375,000 — a spread that shows how much local housing markets diverge inside a single state.
Every figure comes from the American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year five-year estimates, which average survey responses over sixty months. That averaging is what makes small towns measurable at all, but it also means the numbers describe the period as a whole rather than today. Blank cells are estimates the Census suppressed because the local sample was too small to publish reliably. Select any place to open its full profile with affordability ratios, poverty and homeownership rates, and links to nearby communities of similar size.

Reading this North Carolina list
What the North Carolina numbers actually show.
North Carolina is a city-weighted state without being a one-city state: 22 places above 50,000 residents hold 56% of the 6,600,402 people counted here, spread across several metros rather than one. Comparisons work best inside that tier — the 318 sub-thousand places on this list live in a different economy. The median row holds just 1,462 residents. At that scale margins of error widen sharply, and a single large household or seasonal population can shift a median.
Buying is a little easier here than nationally: North Carolina's median place shows $189,900 in home value on $58,938 of income, a ratio of 3.2 against 3.9 across the country. Median gross rent runs $923 including utilities, or about 19% of median household income annually.
Incomes fan out sharply inside North Carolina. Strip the outliers and the top-decile place still earns 2.83× the bottom-decile one ($101,461 against $35,833); include them and Marvin village tops the list at $250,001 and Greenevers town anchors the bottom at $14,394. A single "North Carolina average" is averaging across two different economies.
About one row in 13 is incomplete — 64 of 777 places have a suppressed estimate, almost all of them at the small end. Five-year estimates average responses over sixty months, so what is published is a stable baseline rather than a reading of this month's market.
Questions people ask
Specific to North Carolina.
How many places does North Carolina have? 777 appear in the current federal tabulation, counting incorporated cities, towns and villages together with census-designated places — unincorporated communities with no local government of their own. 41% of them have fewer than a thousand residents, so the list is far longer than the number of towns you would recognise by name.
Which North Carolina row should I compare mine against? Pick places within roughly the same population band. In a state this spread out, size drives the housing and income figures more than region does.
How current is this? Every figure comes from the American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year release published by the US Census Bureau, ACS 2019-2023 5-year estimates. It reflects the full survey window rather than a single date, and it is the most recent vintage available for places this small.
