Demopolis, Alabama has about 6,908 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.
A typical home is worth about $183,600.
HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Marengo County is $921 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Demopolis. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.
Alabama's prices sit at 88.8 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.
Alabama taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 9.5% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Demopolis's exact store tax.
Some places in Alabama add a local wage tax. In 2023 the state average was about 0.07% of income. That is not a Demopolis bill.
