Braddock, VA population, income and ZIP codes

Braddock CDP is a mid-size town in Virginia, with 6,404 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #180 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 73% of them. The median age here is 46.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Braddock CDP earn a median of $214,563 a year, 173.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 159% above the $82,986 median for the 383 Virginia 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 1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Braddock CDP is valued at $915,900, 201.9% above the national figure and 214% above the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,322 a month, 65.1% above the national figure, or roughly $27,864 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13% 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 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 82.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
