Salvo CDP, NC in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Salvo CDP is a very small community in North Carolina, with 219 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #697 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 10% of them. The median age here is 36.7 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 Salvo CDP earn a median of $64,940 a year, 17.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% above the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Salvo 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.
