Princeton, Arkansas Demographics & Population 2026

Individual percentages below — particularly rates that round to 0% or 100% — are approximations, not precise measurements. See data.census.gov for the published margins of error.

In a community this small the estimate rests on very few survey responses, so it should be read as an absence of measurement rather than a measured absence of poverty.
