Birchwood Village, MN population, income and ZIP codes

Birchwood Village city is a very small community in Minnesota, with 960 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #367 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 41.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Birchwood Village city earn a median of $156,653 a year, 99.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 108% above the $75,469 median for the 361 Minnesota 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 4.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Birchwood Village city is valued at $461,800, 52.2% above the national figure and 92% above the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,806 a month, 28.4% above the national figure, or roughly $21,672 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.8% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.6% 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 960 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Birchwood Village city against its county rather than against national figures.
