Over the past decade, Crestview has maintained its status as a White Majority community, but with significant changes. In 2013, the neighborhood exhibited Low Diversity, with the white population at 86%. By 2022, it had transitioned to Moderate Diversity, primarily due to the growth of the Hispanic population from 7% in 2013 to 18% in 2022, indicating a Transitional Community trend. The Asian and Black populations have remained relatively stable, with slight fluctuations. The community has seen a minor increase in residents identifying as two or more races, rising from 2% to 3% over the decade.
The median income in Crestview has shown an overall upward trend, despite fluctuations. In 2013, the median income was $58,303, and by 2022 it had increased to $64,674, representing a 10.9% growth over the decade. A significant increase in median income occurred between 2019 and 2020, from $58,708 to $70,087, coinciding with a slight decrease in population. The population has grown from 2,375 in 2013 to 2,985 in 2022, a 25.7% increase. This growth, coupled with increasing diversity and rising median income, suggests that Crestview is becoming an increasingly attractive neighborhood for various demographic groups, particularly Hispanic families.
The demographic shifts in Crestview align with broader national trends of increasing diversity in suburban areas. The growth of the Hispanic population reflects a nationwide pattern of Hispanic population growth and dispersion into suburban communities. The economic growth in Crestview, while positive, appears to be slightly below the national average. The U.S. median household income grew by about 15% between 2013 and 2022, compared to Crestview's 10.9% growth. However, Crestview's median income in 2022 ($64,674) is still above the national median income for that year (approximately $70,784 as of 2021, with 2022 data not yet available at the time of this analysis).
The neighborhood's population growth of 25.7% over the decade is significant and outpaces the national average, indicating that Crestview is an attractive area for new residents. This growth, combined with the increasing diversity and rising incomes, suggests that Crestview is evolving into a more dynamic and economically vibrant community within Overland Park.
