Braddyville, IA population, income and ZIP codes

Braddyville city is a very small community in Iowa, with 176 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #727 of 1,026 ranked by population — larger than 29% of them. The median age here is 41 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Braddyville city earn a median of $42,500 a year, 45.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 37% below the $67,791 median for the 290 Iowa cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area.

The typical owner-occupied home in Braddyville city is valued at $59,100, 80.5% below the national figure and 62% below the $156,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $858 a month, 39% below the national figure, or roughly $10,296 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 69.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
