Jarratt town, VA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Jarratt town is a very small community in Virginia, with 888 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #398 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 35.6 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 Jarratt town earn a median of $80,833 a year, 2.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 3% below the $82,986 median for the 383 Virginia 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 10.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Jarratt town is valued at $157,200, 48.2% below the national figure and 46% below the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $921 a month, 34.5% below the national figure, or roughly $11,052 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.7% 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 1.9×, 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. 71.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 888 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Jarratt town against its county rather than against national figures.
