Sevierville city, TN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Sevierville city is a mid-size town in Tennessee, with 18,105 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #34 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 38.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Sevierville city earn a median of $55,106 a year, 29.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $55,988 median for the 307 Tennessee cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 15.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Sevierville city is valued at $264,000, 13% below the national figure and 38% above the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,000 a month, 28.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.8% 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 4.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 52.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
