Terre du Lac, MO population, income and ZIP codes

Terre du Lac CDP is a small town in Missouri, with 2,460 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #242 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 44.8 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 Terre du Lac CDP earn a median of $93,115 a year, 18.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 68% above 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 11.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Terre du Lac CDP is valued at $186,400, 38.6% below the national figure and 22% above the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2×, 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. 92.7% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for Terre du Lac CDP 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.
