Woodlawn CDP (Carroll County), VA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Woodlawn CDP (Carroll County) is a small town in Virginia, with 2,461 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #264 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 39 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Woodlawn CDP (Carroll County) earn a median of $89,375 a year, 13.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 8% 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 4.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Woodlawn CDP (Carroll County) is valued at $144,700, 52.3% below the national figure and 50% below the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $571 a month, 59.4% below the national figure, or roughly $6,852 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 7.7% 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 1.6×, 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. 84.7% 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.
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.
