Harrogate city, TN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Harrogate city is a small town in Tennessee, with 4,355 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #130 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 74% of them. The median age here is 40.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Harrogate city earn a median of $63,257 a year, 19.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% above the $55,988 median for the 307 Tennessee 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 12.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Harrogate city is valued at $178,600, 41.1% below the national figure and 7% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,277 a month, 9.2% below the national figure, or roughly $15,324 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 71.6% 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.
