Java town, SD in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Java town is a very small community in South Dakota, with 99 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #304 of 485 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 39.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Java town earn a median of $46,250 a year, 41.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 29% below the $65,500 median for the 79 South Dakota cities we cover. 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 17.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Java town is valued at $57,500, 81% below the national figure and 70% below the $192,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 73.8% 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.

With 99 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Java town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Java town 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.
