Spout Springs, NC population, income and ZIP codes

Spout Springs CDP is a mid-size town in North Carolina, with 11,073 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #89 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 88% of them. The median age here is 30.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Spout Springs CDP earn a median of $87,905 a year, 11.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 44% 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 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Spout Springs CDP is valued at $310,100, 2.2% above the national figure and 41% above the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,794 a month, 27.6% above the national figure, or roughly $21,528 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.5% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
