Nash ZIP codes — Nash County, North Carolina

Nash County is a small city in North Carolina, with 95,451 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 41.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.

Households in Nash County earn a median of $60,704 a year, 22.7% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 14% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Nash County is valued at $171,100, 43.6% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $924 a month, 34.3% below the national figure, or roughly $11,088 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.3% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 63.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
