Hallam village, NE in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Hallam village is a very small community in Nebraska, with 292 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #288 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 51% 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 Hallam village earn a median of $96,250 a year, 22.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 43% above the $67,419 median for the 119 Nebraska cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 6.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Hallam village is valued at $259,600, 14.4% below the national figure and 60% above the $161,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $983 a month, 30.1% below the national figure, or roughly $11,796 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.3% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 81.9% 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.
