Huxley city, IA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Huxley city is a small town in Iowa, with 4,440 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #95 of 1,026 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 34.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Huxley city earn a median of $122,716 a year, 56.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 81% above the $67,791 median for the 290 Iowa cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 3.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Huxley city is valued at $296,100, 2.4% below the national figure and 89% above the $156,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,260 a month, 10.4% below the national figure, or roughly $15,120 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.3% 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 2.4×, 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. 83% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
