Camp Croft, SC population, income and ZIP codes

Camp Croft CDP is a small town in South Carolina, with 1,604 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #220 of 475 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 39.2 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 Camp Croft CDP earn a median of $38,940 a year, 50.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% below the $53,071 median for the 263 South Carolina cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 33.9% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Camp Croft CDP is valued at $124,900, 58.8% below the national figure and 29% below the $177,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,053 a month, 25.1% below the national figure, or roughly $12,636 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 54.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

Camp Croft CDP is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 32.4% of median income while homes cost only 3.2× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
