Everly city, IA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Everly city is a very small community in Iowa, with 586 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #433 of 1,026 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 41.8 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 Everly city earn a median of $55,192 a year, 29.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $67,791 median for the 290 Iowa cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 10.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Everly city is valued at $104,400, 65.6% below the national figure and 33% below the $156,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $770 a month, 45.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,240 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.9×, 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. 75.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
