Pleasant Hill, TN population, income and ZIP codes

Pleasant Hill town is a very small community in Tennessee, with 546 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #371 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 64.5 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 Pleasant Hill town earn a median of $48,393 a year, 38.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 14% below the $55,988 median for the 307 Tennessee cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 18.9% 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 Pleasant Hill town is valued at $170,400, 43.8% below the national figure and 11% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $933 a month, 33.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,196 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.1% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 75.5% 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.

A median age of 64.5 puts Pleasant Hill town well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 546 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Pleasant Hill town against its county rather than against national figures.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
