Roy Lake, MN population, income and ZIP codes

Roy Lake CDP is a very small community in Minnesota, with 57 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #852 of 914 ranked by population — larger than 6% of them. The median age here is 31 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Roy Lake CDP earn a median of $101,250 a year, 28.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 34% above 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Roy Lake CDP is valued at $266,700, 12.1% below the national figure and 11% above the $240,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 100% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

With 57 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Roy Lake CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Roy Lake CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
