The median income in Bowerston has increased notably over the past decade. In 2013, the median income was $35,386, rising to $57,256 by 2022, representing a 61.8% increase over nine years. This growth suggests improving economic conditions for the community. The economic growth has not been accompanied by significant demographic changes, indicating that the improved economic conditions have primarily benefited the existing population rather than attracting a more diverse influx of residents.

Population figures have fluctuated slightly over the years, with a low of 1,496 in 2015 and a high of 1,762 in 2020. The 2022 population of 1,581 represents a modest net decline from the 2013 figure of 1,504, despite the economic improvements.

The persistence of low diversity in Bowerston contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity in many areas of the United States. The significant increase in median income (61.8% over nine years) outpaces the national average for wage growth during this period, suggesting that this community has experienced stronger economic growth than many other areas of the country.

The stability of the racial composition, despite economic growth, may indicate limited external migration into the area. This could be due to factors such as the rural nature of the community, limited job market diversity, or cultural preferences of the existing population. The gradual increase in Hispanic population and the emergence of a small multi-racial category align with broader national trends, albeit on a much smaller scale in this community.

Bowerston has experienced significant economic improvement over the past decade, yet it has remained a "Low Diversity" community with minimal demographic shifts. This suggests a stable, predominantly white rural community that has benefited from economic growth without significant changes to its racial composition.
