ZIP 41274 in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
ZIP 41274 is a very small community in Johnson County, Kentucky, with 497 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #588 of 779 ranked by population — larger than 24% of them. The median age here is 41 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole.

Households in ZIP 41274 earn a median of not published a year. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 31.8% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 41274 is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $673 a month, 52.1% below the national figure, or roughly $8,076 across a full year. 56% 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.

The Census withheld household income, home value for ZIP 41274 because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
