Pine City city, MN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Pine City city is a small town in Minnesota, with 3,339 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #202 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 40.9 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 Pine City city earn a median of $51,654 a year, 34.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 32% below the $75,469 median for the 361 Minnesota cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 12.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Pine City city is valued at $181,800, 40.1% below the national figure and 24% below the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $676 a month, 51.9% below the national figure, or roughly $8,112 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.7% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 63.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
