North Plains city, OR in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

North Plains city is a small town in Oregon, with 3,393 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #124 of 426 ranked by population — larger than 71% of them. The median age here is 35.3 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 North Plains city earn a median of $108,618 a year, 38.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 47% above the $74,006 median for the 228 Oregon 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 4.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in North Plains city is valued at $544,000, 79.3% above the national figure and 44% above the $377,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,373 a month, 2.3% below the national figure, or roughly $16,476 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.2% 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 5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
