McBride, MI population, income and ZIP codes

McBride village is a very small community in Michigan, with 222 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #670 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 10% of them. The median age here is 49.2 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.

Households in McBride village earn a median of $57,750 a year, 26.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% below the $61,715 median for the 438 Michigan 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 9.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in McBride village is valued at $90,000, 70.3% below the national figure and 46% below the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.6×, 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. 90.1% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

With 222 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare McBride village against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for McBride village 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.
