Manley village, NE in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Manley village is a very small community in Nebraska, with 205 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #354 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 40% of them. The median age here is 47.3 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 Manley village earn a median of $70,000 a year, 10.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% 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 12.7% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Manley village is valued at $203,600, 32.9% below the national figure and 26% above the $161,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $950 a month, 32.4% below the national figure, or roughly $11,400 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.3% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 88.2% 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.
