Caledonia, WI population, income and ZIP codes

Caledonia village is a small city in Wisconsin, with 25,292 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #33 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 44.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Caledonia village earn a median of $91,053 a year, 15.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 23% above the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin 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 4.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Caledonia village is valued at $279,400, 7.9% below the national figure and 32% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,080 a month, 23.2% below the national figure, or roughly $12,960 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.2% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 81.8% 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.
