Stanfield town, NC in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Stanfield town is a small town in North Carolina, with 1,554 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #374 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 51% of them. The median age here is 37.1 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 Stanfield town earn a median of $81,375 a year, 3.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 33% 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 11% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

A household on the local median income would put about 11.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners.
