Meadow Bridge town, WV in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Meadow Bridge town is a very small community in West Virginia, with 504 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #230 of 439 ranked by population — larger than 47% of them. The median age here is 44.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Meadow Bridge town earn a median of $40,089 a year, 49% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% below the $52,974 median for the 148 West Virginia 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 15.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Meadow Bridge town is valued at $108,000, 64.4% below the national figure and 15% below the $127,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $633 a month, 55% below the national figure, or roughly $7,596 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.9% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
