Marble CDP, NC in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Marble CDP is a very small community in North Carolina, with 377 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #633 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 18% of them. The median age here is 45.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Marble CDP earn a median of $49,821 a year, 36.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 6.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Marble CDP is valued at $203,000, 33.1% below the national figure and 8% below the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 71.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
With 377 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Marble CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Marble 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.
