Picnic Point CDP, WA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Picnic Point CDP is a mid-size town in Washington, with 9,833 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #133 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 41.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Picnic Point CDP earn a median of $128,295 a year, 63.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 42% above 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 5.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Picnic Point CDP is valued at $747,600, 146.4% above the national figure and 60% above the $468,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,306 a month, 64% above the national figure, or roughly $27,672 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.6% 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 5.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
