Clifton, WV population, income and ZIP codes

Clifton CDP is a very small community in West Virginia, with 392 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #266 of 439 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 38.6 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 Clifton CDP earn a median of not published a year. 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 8.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Clifton CDP is valued at $210,700, 30.6% below the national figure and 66% above the $127,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 83% 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.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for Clifton 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.
