Orleans village, VT in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Orleans village is a very small community in Vermont, with 848 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #53 of 179 ranked by population — larger than 70% of them. The median age here is 38.2 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 Orleans village earn a median of $57,604 a year, 26.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% below the $65,898 median for the 48 Vermont 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 11% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Orleans village is valued at $156,300, 48.5% below the national figure and 36% below the $245,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $757 a month, 46.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,084 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.8% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 62.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
