Madisonville city, TN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Madisonville city is a mid-size town in Tennessee, with 5,184 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #112 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 41.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Madisonville city earn a median of $45,274 a year, 42.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below 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 14.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Madisonville city is valued at $202,600, 33.2% below the national figure and 6% above the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $663 a month, 52.8% below the national figure, or roughly $7,956 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.6% 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 4.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 65.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
