Green River city, UT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Green River city is a very small community in Utah, with 804 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #194 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 42.1 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 Green River city earn a median of $45,781 a year, 41.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 50% below the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah 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 8.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Green River city is valued at $153,800, 49.3% below the national figure and 65% below the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $560 a month, 60.2% below the national figure, or roughly $6,720 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.7% 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. 68.4% 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.
