Winfield town, TN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Winfield town is a small town in Tennessee, with 1,166 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #286 of 504 ranked by population — larger than 43% of them. The median age here is 37.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Winfield town earn a median of $40,268 a year, 48.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 28% 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 24.8% 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 Winfield town is valued at $101,000, 66.7% below the national figure and 47% below the $191,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $695 a month, 50.6% below the national figure, or roughly $8,340 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.7% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 77.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

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.
