Swepsonville, NC population, income and ZIP codes

Swepsonville town is a small town in North Carolina, with 2,452 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #301 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 38.1 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 Swepsonville town earn a median of $94,028 a year, 19.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 54% above 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 5.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Swepsonville town is valued at $282,500, 6.9% below the national figure and 29% above the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $988 a month, 29.7% below the national figure, or roughly $11,856 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.6% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 90.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
