Tschetter Colony, SD population, income and ZIP codes

Tschetter Colony CDP is a very small community in South Dakota, with 96 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #308 of 485 ranked by population — larger than 36% of them. The median age here is 14.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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.

The Census withheld household income, home value, gross rent for Tschetter Colony CDP 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.
