Dayton, Alabama: commercial real estate data.
Dayton is a Census town of 46 people across 1.00 square miles of land, in Marengo County. 100.0 percent of occupied homes are owned.
Underlined figures are computed by MMCG Analytics, not published by the agency.
This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Dayton through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 46 with a margin of error of plus or minus 63, which is 137.0 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it. Because the margin here exceeds the estimate, this page shows its strongest sections only rather than a full profile.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Common questions
Dayton questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Dayton, Alabama?
46, in 8 households. Dayton town covers 1.00 square miles of land, which is 46 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Dayton in?
Marengo County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
Is Dayton in the National Flood Insurance Program?
No, it is listed but not participating. Dayton appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Dayton, town of, community 010456, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Dayton figures?
No, and they are labeled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Marengo County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Dayton.
Is zoning published for Dayton?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
