Foxfire village, NC in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Foxfire village is a small town in North Carolina, with 1,730 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #356 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 38.9 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 Foxfire village earn a median of $75,163 a year, 4.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% above the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina 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 1.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Foxfire village is valued at $352,300, 16.1% above the national figure and 60% above the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,082 a month, 23% below the national figure, or roughly $12,984 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
