2005–2024 estimates · as-of November 2026

Between censuses, Granger exists statistically only in the American Community Survey: the Bureau's replacement for the old long form, which for a place of this size publishes five-year estimates only. The first five-year release to reach CDP geography covered 2005–2009; the current one as this section is built covers 2020–2024, and it is carried here whole. What prints here is the two ends of the survey era — the decennial anchors in the articles above, and this profile.

The 2020–2024 profile, as the Bureau's tables print it (margins: the total carries ±575): an estimated 30,321 people; median age 40.4 years; 28.4 percent under eighteen and 18.1 percent sixty-five or over — the oldest age structure in the place's record, against the decennial 2020's own median age of 41.3, the two figures printing side by side as separate instruments' readings. Estimated households 10,560, of whom 8,284 were families (7,233 married-couple); owner-occupancy at 95.3 percent of occupied units (10,064 owners, 496 renters) in a stock of 10,869 units with 309 vacant; median value of an owner-occupied home $331,100; median gross rent $1,656. Education, for the 19,680 residents twenty-five and over: high-school completion at about 96.5 percent, a bachelor's degree or more at 56.3 percent, and a graduate or professional degree at 24.9 percent — the 1990 sample's 40.9 percent bachelor's line, thirty years on. Income: median household income $123,318 and per capita income $57,489, against the 1990 census's $56,149 and $21,647 in the 1989 dollars that census collected — the two pairs print in their own years' dollars and are not adjusted into each other here. Poverty stands at 4.7 percent of the population for whom the survey determines it (1,414 of 30,116), against the 1990 census's printed 1.2 percent. Work: of 22,566 residents sixteen and over, 65.5 percent were in the labor force and 650 were unemployed; of 13,879 commuters, 80.0 percent drove alone, and 1,843 (13.3 percent) worked from home — a commuting category the 1990 census's table, with its 92.1 percent driving alone and no such line at strength, could not have described.
