Gibbon city, MN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Gibbon city is a very small community in Minnesota, with 880 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #380 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 58% of them. The median age here is 44.7 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 Gibbon city earn a median of $53,148 a year, 32.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 30% below 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 17.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Gibbon city is valued at $98,600, 67.5% below the national figure and 59% below the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $872 a month, 38% below the national figure, or roughly $10,464 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.7% 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 1.9×, 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. 79.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
