Mountain Road, VA population, income and ZIP codes

Mountain Road CDP is a small town in Virginia, with 1,517 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #318 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 41.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Mountain Road CDP earn a median of $34,399 a year, 56.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 59% below the $82,986 median for the 383 Virginia cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 15.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mountain Road CDP is valued at $80,000, 73.6% below the national figure and 73% below the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.3×, 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. 83.5% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

The Census withheld gross rent for Mountain Road 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.
