This economic growth correlates with subtle demographic shifts. As the neighborhood's income levels rose, it attracted a slightly more diverse population, particularly Hispanic residents. However, the persistent White majority suggests that the economic growth has not led to significant demographic changes. Population figures show modest fluctuations, with a general upward trend from 2,025 in 2010 to 2,410 in 2022. This growth, combined with rising incomes, suggests increasing desirability of the neighborhood.

Old North Knoxville's trends can be contextualized within broader national patterns. The neighborhood's rapid income growth outpaces national averages, suggesting localized economic factors at play. The persistent low diversity contrasts with increasing diversity trends in many urban areas across the U.S., indicating that Old North Knoxville may be maintaining its traditional demographic character despite economic changes. The slight increase in Hispanic population aligns with national trends of growing Hispanic communities in various urban and suburban areas.

Old North Knoxville presents a case of significant economic growth within a relatively stable racial demographic context. While the neighborhood remains predominantly White, subtle shifts towards increased diversity, particularly in the Hispanic population, suggest the potential for gradual demographic changes in the future. The challenge for the community may be in balancing economic growth with maintaining its historic character while potentially becoming more inclusive and diverse over time.
