Chapman, NE population, income and ZIP codes

Chapman village is a very small community in Nebraska, with 325 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #276 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 35.1 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 Chapman village earn a median of $89,000 a year, 13.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 32% above 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Chapman village is valued at $114,300, 62.3% below the national figure and 29% below the $161,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,563 a month, 11.2% above the national figure, or roughly $18,756 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.1% 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 1.3×, 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. 80.6% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

With 325 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Chapman village against its county rather than against national figures.

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.
