Woodfield, SC population, income and ZIP codes

Woodfield CDP is a mid-size town in South Carolina, with 9,901 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #63 of 475 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 34.4 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 Woodfield CDP earn a median of $38,394 a year, 51.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 28% below the $53,071 median for the 263 South Carolina cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 24.9% 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 Woodfield CDP is valued at $128,600, 57.6% below the national figure and 27% below the $177,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,190 a month, 15.4% below the national figure, or roughly $14,280 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 37.2% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 51.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Woodfield CDP is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 37.2% of median income while homes cost only 3.3× 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.
