From 2013 to 2022, the Powell-Hood-Hamilton neighborhood transitioned from Moderate Diversity to Low Diversity. In 2013, the neighborhood had an Asian population of 16% alongside the white majority of 75%. By 2022, the Asian population decreased to 5%, while the white population increased to 88%. This shift indicates a trend towards decreased racial diversity over time. A small Hispanic population of 6% emerged in recent years, suggesting the beginnings of a potential Transitional Community on a small scale.

The median income in the neighborhood has shown an upward trend, increasing from $35,382 in 2013 to $45,538 in 2022, a rise of approximately 29%. This economic improvement coincides with the shift towards a more homogeneous racial composition. The population has fluctuated, declining from 2,981 in 2010 to 1,983 in 2015, before increasing to 2,302 in 2022. This population trend, combined with the increasing median income and decreasing diversity, may suggest a process of neighborhood gentrification or changing housing preferences.
