Maltby CDP, WA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Maltby CDP is a mid-size town in Washington, with 10,859 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #119 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 45.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Maltby CDP earn a median of $179,276 a year, 128.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 98% above the $90,592 median for the 393 Washington cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 2.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Maltby CDP is valued at $914,800, 201.5% above the national figure and 95% above the $468,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,928 a month, 37.1% above the national figure, or roughly $23,136 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.9% 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 5.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 93.7% 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. 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.
