Hanahan city, SC in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Hanahan city is a mid-size town in South Carolina, with 21,119 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #29 of 475 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 36.5 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 Hanahan city earn a median of $84,061 a year, 7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 58% above 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 10.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Hanahan city is valued at $339,800, 12% above the national figure and 92% above the $177,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,324 a month, 5.8% below the national figure, or roughly $15,888 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.9% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 67.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
