Huntington CDP, VA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Huntington CDP is a mid-size town in Virginia, with 13,250 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #101 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 36.3 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 Huntington CDP earn a median of $99,580 a year, 26.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 20% above the $82,986 median for the 383 Virginia 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 7.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Huntington CDP is valued at $536,200, 76.7% above the national figure and 84% above the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,045 a month, 45.4% above the national figure, or roughly $24,540 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.6% 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 5.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 43.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
