Dunbar, SC population, income and ZIP codes

Dunbar CDP is a very small community in South Carolina, with 750 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #300 of 475 ranked by population — larger than 36% of them. The median age here is 30 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Dunbar CDP earn a median of $88,250 a year, 12.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 66% above the $53,071 median for the 263 South Carolina 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dunbar CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 100% 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. 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.

A median age of 30 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 750 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Dunbar CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Dunbar 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.
