Bangor Base, WA population, income and ZIP codes

Bangor Base CDP is a mid-size town in Washington, with 5,931 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #182 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 71% of them. The median age here is 22.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Bangor Base CDP earn a median of $84,485 a year, 7.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 7% below the $90,592 median for the 393 Washington 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 2.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Bangor Base CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $2,314 a month, 64.6% above the national figure, or roughly $27,768 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 32.9% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. 1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 22.6 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

The Census withheld home value for Bangor Base 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.
