Timberlake CDP, VA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Timberlake CDP is a mid-size town in Virginia, with 12,833 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #105 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 40.2 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 Timberlake CDP earn a median of $68,833 a year, 12.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 17% below 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 9.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Timberlake CDP is valued at $228,200, 24.8% below the national figure and 22% below the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,037 a month, 26.2% below the national figure, or roughly $12,444 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.1% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 65% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
