Hammond city, MN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Hammond city is a very small community in Minnesota, with 125 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #764 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 16% of them. The median age here is 39.8 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 Hammond city earn a median of $50,000 a year, 36.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 34% below the $75,469 median for the 361 Minnesota cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 9.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Hammond city is valued at $139,600, 54% below the national figure and 42% below the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $845 a month, 39.9% below the national figure, or roughly $10,140 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.3% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 68.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
