New Baltimore city, MI in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
New Baltimore city is a mid-size town in Michigan, with 12,060 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #86 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 88% of them. The median age here is 42.9 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 New Baltimore city earn a median of $97,027 a year, 23.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 57% above 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 4.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in New Baltimore city is valued at $309,800, 2.1% above the national figure and 87% above the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,081 a month, 23.1% below the national figure, or roughly $12,972 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.4% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82.3% 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.
