Menno city, SD in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Menno city is a very small community in South Dakota, with 736 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #110 of 485 ranked by population — larger than 77% of them. The median age here is 45.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Menno city earn a median of $61,250 a year, 22% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% 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 8.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Menno city is valued at $103,200, 66% below the national figure and 46% below the $192,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $380 a month, 73% below the national figure, or roughly $4,560 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 7.4% 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 1.7×, 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. 75.9% 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.

With 736 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Menno city against its county rather than against national figures.
