Gasconade city, MO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Gasconade city is a very small community in Missouri, with 279 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #659 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 36.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Gasconade city earn a median of $42,143 a year, 46.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% below the $55,543 median for the 374 Missouri 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 13.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Gasconade city is valued at $59,000, 80.6% below the national figure and 61% below the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.4×, 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. 95.7% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 279 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Gasconade city against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Gasconade city because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
