Blanche, TN population, income and ZIP codes

Blanche CDP is a very small community in Tennessee, with 168 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #457 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 9% of them. The median age here is 58.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Blanche CDP earn a median of $63,375 a year, 19.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% above the $55,988 median for the 307 Tennessee 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 21.4% 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 Blanche CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 64.8% 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.

A median age of 58.3 puts Blanche CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 168 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Blanche CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Blanche 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.
