Efland CDP, NC in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Efland CDP is a small town in North Carolina, with 1,064 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #446 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 43.7 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 Efland CDP earn a median of $72,396 a year, 7.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 18% above the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Efland CDP is valued at $192,900, 36.4% below the national figure and 12% below the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.9% 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.
The Census withheld gross rent for Efland 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.
