Minnehaha CDP, WA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Minnehaha CDP is a mid-size town in Washington, with 12,080 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #113 of 639 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 37.7 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 Minnehaha CDP earn a median of $108,203 a year, 37.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 19% above the $90,592 median for the 393 Washington 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 4.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Minnehaha CDP is valued at $421,200, 38.8% above the national figure and 10% below the $468,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,597 a month, 13.6% above the national figure, or roughly $19,164 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.7% 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 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 74.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
