Belvedere CDP, SC in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Belvedere CDP is a mid-size town in South Carolina, with 5,458 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #98 of 475 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 38.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Belvedere CDP earn a median of $57,933 a year, 26.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% above the $53,071 median for the 263 South 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 16% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Belvedere CDP is valued at $120,400, 60.3% below the national figure and 32% below the $177,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $952 a month, 32.3% below the national figure, or roughly $11,424 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.7% 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 2.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 71.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
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.
