Byron village, MI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Byron village is a very small community in Michigan, with 654 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #504 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 32% of them. The median age here is 38 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 Byron village earn a median of $64,135 a year, 18.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% above the $61,715 median for the 438 Michigan 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 9.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Byron village is valued at $177,500, 41.5% below the national figure and 7% above the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $950 a month, 32.4% below the national figure, or roughly $11,400 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.8% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82.5% 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.
