Windom, KS population, income and ZIP codes

Windom city is a very small community in Kansas, with 52 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #640 of 740 ranked by population — larger than 13% of them. The median age here is 46.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Windom city because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
