Archer, NE population, income and ZIP codes

Archer CDP is a very small community in Nebraska, with 48 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #515 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 13% of them. The median age here is 60.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Archer CDP earn a median of $58,625 a year, 25.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% below the $67,419 median for the 119 Nebraska 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 14.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Archer CDP is valued at $163,800, 46% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $161,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 100% 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.

A median age of 60.6 puts Archer CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 48 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Archer CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Archer 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.
