Tioga city, ND in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Tioga city is a small town in North Dakota, with 1,525 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #35 of 406 ranked by population — larger than 91% 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 Tioga city earn a median of $62,315 a year, 20.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% below the $68,472 median for the 51 North Dakota 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 10% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Tioga city is valued at $196,800, 35.1% below the national figure and 6% above the $185,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,005 a month, 28.5% below the national figure, or roughly $12,060 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.4% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 53.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.
