Lake Charles area census tracts by median household income

Median household income is highest in Hayes CDP (east-southeast) ($150,241). This table ranks 54 eligible mapped census tracts.

Median household income values are ACS five-year survey estimates. Percentage and median rankings exclude tracts below 500 residents; this reduces but does not eliminate sampling uncertainty.

Method and source

Values come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019–2023 five-year estimates. Census tracts are small statistical areas, not necessarily neighbourhood boundaries. The result is a descriptive comparison of the mapped area, not a measure of individual households or a prediction. Read about the American Community Survey.
