Clarksburg, TN population, income and ZIP codes

Clarksburg town is a small town in Tennessee, with 1,011 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #307 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 32.8 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 Clarksburg town earn a median of $73,661 a year, 6.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 32% 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 16.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Clarksburg town is valued at $143,800, 52.6% below the national figure and 25% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $769 a month, 45.3% below the national figure, or roughly $9,228 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.5% 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 2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 78% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
