Dennison city, MN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Dennison city is a very small community in Minnesota, with 214 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #675 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 37.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Dennison city earn a median of $51,250 a year, 34.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 32% below the $75,469 median for the 361 Minnesota 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 3.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dennison city is valued at $215,600, 28.9% below the national figure and 10% below the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,600 a month, 13.8% above the national figure, or roughly $19,200 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 37.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 77.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
