New Prague, MN population, income and ZIP codes

New Prague city is a mid-size town in Minnesota, with 8,195 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #118 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 34.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 New Prague city earn a median of $98,424 a year, 25.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 30% above 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 3.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in New Prague city is valued at $323,500, 6.6% above the national figure and 35% above the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,198 a month, 14.8% below the national figure, or roughly $14,376 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.6% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 77.4% 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.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
