Dulac is a very small coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Louisiana. With a population of 1,241 people and two associated neighborhoods, Dulac is the 218th largest community in Louisiana. Dulac has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years. Quite often, new home construction is the result of new residents moving in who are middle class or wealthier, attracted by jobs, a healthy local economy, or other amenities as they leave nearby or far away areas for greener pastures. This seems to be the case in Dulac, where the median household income is $38,750.00.

Another notable thing is that Dulac is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the town experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller town.

The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Dulac has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Dulac a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.

One of the nice things about Dulac is that it is nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.

Dulac is a small town, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.

In terms of college education, Dulac ranks among the least educated cities in the nation, as only 4.43% of people over 25 have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.

The per capita income in Dulac in 2022 was $34,353, which is upper middle income relative to Louisiana, and middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $137,412 for a family of four. However, Dulac contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
