Longview Heights, WA population, income and ZIP codes

Longview Heights CDP is a small town in Washington, with 4,403 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #212 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 66% of them. The median age here is 36.5 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 Longview Heights CDP earn a median of $90,592 a year, 15.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $90,592 median for the 393 Washington 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 10% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Longview Heights CDP is valued at $443,000, 46% above the national figure and 5% below the $468,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,203 a month, 14.4% below the national figure, or roughly $14,436 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.9% 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 4.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 83.3% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.
