Wallburg town, NC in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Wallburg town is a small town in North Carolina, with 3,104 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #256 of 777 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 48 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Wallburg town earn a median of $78,821 a year, essentially level with the national figure of $78,538 and 29% above the $61,228 median for the 459 North Carolina cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 6.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Wallburg town is valued at $292,500, 3.6% below the national figure and 33% above the $219,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,047 a month, 25.5% below the national figure, or roughly $12,564 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.9% 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. 95.6% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
