Stovall town, NC in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Stovall town is a very small community in North Carolina, with 276 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #671 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 13% of them. The median age here is 43.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Stovall town earn a median of $46,250 a year, 41.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% below the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area.

A household on the local median income would put about 19.1% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 72.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners.
