Dallesport CDP, WA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Dallesport CDP is a small town in Washington, with 1,434 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #354 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 44% of them. The median age here is 48.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Dallesport CDP earn a median of $67,500 a year, 14.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 25% below the $90,592 median for the 393 Washington cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 17.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dallesport CDP is valued at $355,400, 17.1% above the national figure and 24% below the $468,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,350 a month, 4% below the national figure, or roughly $16,200 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24% 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 5.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 72.1% 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.
