Echo city, OR in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Echo city is a very small community in Oregon, with 463 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #291 of 426 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 35.8 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 Echo city earn a median of $60,385 a year, 23.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 18% below the $74,006 median for the 228 Oregon 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 8.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Echo city is valued at $204,200, 32.7% below the national figure and 46% below the $377,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $945 a month, 32.8% below the national figure, or roughly $11,340 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.8% 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 3.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 63.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
