Mount Pleasant city, UT in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Mount Pleasant city is a small town in Utah, with 3,737 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #104 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 34 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 Mount Pleasant city earn a median of $67,459 a year, 14.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% 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 18.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mount Pleasant city is valued at $269,200, 11.3% below the national figure and 38% below the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,049 a month, 25.4% below the national figure, or roughly $12,588 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.7% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 76.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
