Delhi, Louisiana has about 2,573 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $118,000.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Richland Parish is $975 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Delhi. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Monroe, LA metro area, prices sit at 83.6 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.

Louisiana taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 10.1% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Delhi's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Louisiana home paid 12.72¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Delhi's bill.

EIA did not publish a 2025 all-grades gas price for Louisiana in the table we use.
