Lovettsville town, VA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Lovettsville town is a small town in Virginia, with 2,697 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #253 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 63% of them. The median age here is 31.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Lovettsville town earn a median of $141,042 a year, 79.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 70% 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 3.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Lovettsville town is valued at $526,600, 73.6% above the national figure and 81% above the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,972 a month, 40.3% above the national figure, or roughly $23,664 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.8% 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 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84.2% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
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.
