Stevensville town, MT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Stevensville town is a small town in Montana, with 2,172 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #48 of 497 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 38.9 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 Stevensville town earn a median of $52,745 a year, 32.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 16% below the $62,992 median for the 94 Montana 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 15.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Stevensville town is valued at $336,500, 10.9% above the national figure and 34% above the $250,900 peer median, 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 23% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 6.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 57.7% 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.
Home values sit at 6.4× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere.
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.
