Springfield CDP, VA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Springfield CDP is a small city in Virginia, with 30,894 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #36 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 41.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Springfield CDP earn a median of $123,691 a year, 57.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 49% above 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 7.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Springfield CDP is valued at $622,200, 105.1% above the national figure and 114% above the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,643 a month, 88% above the national figure, or roughly $31,716 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.6% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 66.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
