Huntland, TN population, income and ZIP codes

Huntland town is a small town in Tennessee, with 1,381 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #266 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 47% of them. The median age here is 30.6 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 Huntland town earn a median of $66,574 a year, 15.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% 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 12.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Huntland town is valued at $151,100, 50.2% below the national figure and 21% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $994 a month, 29.3% below the national figure, or roughly $11,928 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.9% 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 2.3×, 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. 87.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
