Bradford, RI population, income and ZIP codes

Bradford CDP is a small town in Rhode Island, with 1,437 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #25 of 36 ranked by population — larger than 31% 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 Bradford CDP earn a median of $108,295 a year, 37.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 16% above the $93,653 median for the 28 Rhode Island 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. Poverty reaches 9.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Bradford CDP is valued at $387,100, 27.6% above the national figure and 8% above the $358,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

The Census withheld gross rent for Bradford CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
