Munford city, TN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Munford city is a mid-size town in Tennessee, with 6,459 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #95 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 32.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Munford city earn a median of $86,492 a year, 10.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 54% 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 6.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Munford city is valued at $234,600, 22.7% below the national figure and 23% above the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,086 a month, 22.8% below the national figure, or roughly $13,032 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.1% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.8% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
