Ong, NE population, income and ZIP codes

Ong village is a very small community in Nebraska, with 57 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #508 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 14% of them. The median age here is 67.2 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 Ong village earn a median of not published a year. 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 26.3% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Ong village is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 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. 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.

A median age of 67.2 puts Ong village 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 57 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Ong village against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, home value, gross rent for Ong village 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.
