Riverton, NE population, income and ZIP codes

Riverton village is a very small community in Nebraska, with 93 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #459 of 593 ranked by population — larger than 22% of them. The median age here is 36.7 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 Riverton village earn a median of $44,792 a year, 43% below the national figure of $78,538 and 34% below the $67,419 median for the 119 Nebraska cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 11.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Riverton village is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $908 a month, 35.4% below the national figure, or roughly $10,896 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. 71.8% 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.

The Census withheld home value for Riverton 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.
