Brooklyn village, WI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Brooklyn village is a small town in Wisconsin, with 1,457 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #328 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 35.4 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 Brooklyn village earn a median of $100,357 a year, 27.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 36% above the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin 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 6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Brooklyn village is valued at $255,100, 15.9% below the national figure and 20% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,310 a month, 6.8% below the national figure, or roughly $15,720 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.7% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 83.8% 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
