Rogersville city, MO in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Rogersville city is a small town in Missouri, with 4,496 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #164 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 30.7 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 Rogersville city earn a median of $51,375 a year, 34.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% 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. Poverty reaches 16% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Rogersville city is valued at $205,900, 32.1% below the national figure and 35% above the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $812 a month, 42.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,744 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 48.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
