Normandy, TN population, income and ZIP codes

Normandy town is a very small community in Tennessee, with 105 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #482 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 4% of them. The median age here is 49.5 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 Normandy town earn a median of $59,583 a year, 24.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% 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 30.5% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Normandy town is valued at $170,000, 44% below the national figure and 11% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,625 a month, 15.6% above the national figure, or roughly $19,500 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. 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. 90% 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.

Normandy town is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 32.7% of median income while homes cost only 2.9× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price. With 105 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Normandy town against its county rather than against national figures.

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.
