Kings Grant, NC population, income and ZIP codes

Kings Grant CDP is a mid-size town in North Carolina, with 9,061 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #105 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 37.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Kings Grant CDP earn a median of $60,009 a year, 23.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 14.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Kings Grant CDP is valued at $258,200, 14.9% below the national figure and 17% above the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,290 a month, 8.3% below the national figure, or roughly $15,480 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 64.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
