Burlington Junction, MO population, income and ZIP codes

Burlington Junction city is a very small community in Missouri, with 383 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #582 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 40.8 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 Burlington Junction city earn a median of $46,250 a year, 41.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 17% below the $55,543 median for the 374 Missouri cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area.

The typical owner-occupied home in Burlington Junction city is valued at $79,600, 73.8% below the national figure and 48% below the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.7×, 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. 79.4% 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.

With 383 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Burlington Junction city against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Burlington Junction city 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.
