Stewartsville, MO population, income and ZIP codes

Stewartsville city is a very small community in Missouri, with 781 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #425 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 60% of them. The median age here is 26.7 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 Stewartsville city earn a median of $73,906 a year, 5.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% above 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 7.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Stewartsville city is valued at $121,400, 60% below the national figure and 20% below the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $783 a month, 44.3% below the national figure, or roughly $9,396 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.7% 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 1.6×, 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. 79.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 26.7 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 781 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Stewartsville city against its county rather than against national figures.
