Williamstown, VT population, income and ZIP codes

Williamstown CDP is a small town in Vermont, with 1,622 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #35 of 179 ranked by population — larger than 80% of them. The median age here is 38.8 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 Williamstown CDP earn a median of $90,938 a year, 15.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 38% above the $65,898 median for the 48 Vermont 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 11% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Williamstown CDP is valued at $182,200, 39.9% below the national figure and 26% below the $245,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,732 a month, 23.2% above the national figure, or roughly $20,784 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.9% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 75.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
