Pink Hill, NC population, income and ZIP codes

Pink Hill town is a very small community in North Carolina, with 470 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #598 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 23% of them. The median age here is 48.8 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 Pink Hill town earn a median of $42,670 a year, 45.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 30% below 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 32.1% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Pink Hill town is valued at $69,000, 77.3% below the national figure and 69% below the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $721 a month, 48.7% below the national figure, or roughly $8,652 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.3% 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 1.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 54% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
