Springfield, VT population, income and ZIP codes

Springfield CDP is a small town in Vermont, with 3,882 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #16 of 179 ranked by population — larger than 91% of them. The median age here is 42.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Springfield CDP earn a median of $44,375 a year, 43.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% below the $65,898 median for the 48 Vermont 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 19.4% 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 Springfield CDP is valued at $138,400, 54.4% below the national figure and 44% below the $245,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $726 a month, 48.4% below the national figure, or roughly $8,712 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.6% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 50.2% 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.

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.
