Plain City city, UT in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Plain City city is a mid-size town in Utah, with 8,101 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #78 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 76% of them. The median age here is 37 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Plain City city earn a median of $126,250 a year, 60.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 38% above the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 1.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Plain City city is valued at $532,300, 75.4% above the national figure and 22% above the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,184 a month, 55.3% above the national figure, or roughly $26,208 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 94.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
