Flushing city, MI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Flushing city is a mid-size town in Michigan, with 8,323 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #122 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 83% of them. The median age here is 39.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Flushing city earn a median of $77,372 a year, 1.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 25% above the $61,715 median for the 438 Michigan 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. Poverty reaches 6.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Flushing city is valued at $189,500, 37.5% below the national figure and 14% above the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $940 a month, 33.1% below the national figure, or roughly $11,280 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.6% 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. 72.4% 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.
