Mosheim town, TN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Mosheim town is a small town in Tennessee, with 2,500 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #185 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 63% of them. The median age here is 45.9 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 Mosheim town earn a median of $46,523 a year, 40.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 17% below 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 18.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mosheim town is valued at $134,200, 55.8% below the national figure and 30% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $799 a month, 43.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,588 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.6% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 62.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.
