Roseville city, MI in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Roseville city is a small city in Michigan, with 47,240 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #26 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 40 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 Roseville city earn a median of $61,222 a year, 22% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 11.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Roseville city is valued at $142,700, 53% below the national figure and 14% below the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,175 a month, 16.4% below the national figure, or roughly $14,100 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.3×, 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. 64.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
