Montvale CDP, VA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Montvale CDP is a very small community in Virginia, with 379 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #511 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 25% of them. The median age here is 45.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Montvale CDP earn a median of $41,732 a year, 46.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 50% below 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 12.7% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Montvale CDP is valued at $212,500, 30% below the national figure and 27% below the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 68.4% 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 379 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Montvale CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Montvale CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
