Mineral Point, MO population, income and ZIP codes

Mineral Point town 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 #583 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 36.6 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 Mineral Point town earn a median of $39,087 a year, 50.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 30% below the $55,543 median for the 374 Missouri 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 17.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mineral Point town is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $1,013 a month, 28% below the national figure, or roughly $12,156 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. 62.4% 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.

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

The Census withheld home value for Mineral Point town 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.
