East Troy, WI population, income and ZIP codes

East Troy village is a small town in Wisconsin, with 4,689 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #161 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 80% of them. The median age here is 38.8 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 East Troy village earn a median of $77,698 a year, 1.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 5% above the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 9.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in East Troy village is valued at $251,500, 17.1% below the national figure and 19% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,418 a month, essentially level with the national figure, or roughly $17,016 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.9% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 62.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
