Arlington village, NE in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Arlington village is a small town in Nebraska, with 1,437 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #86 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 35.4 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 Arlington village earn a median of $95,278 a year, 21.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 41% above the $67,419 median for the 119 Nebraska 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 3.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Arlington village is valued at $222,500, 26.7% below the national figure and 38% above the $161,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,086 a month, 22.8% below the national figure, or roughly $13,032 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.7% 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 2.3×, 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. 78.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
