Herbster CDP, WI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Herbster CDP is a very small community in Wisconsin, with 109 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #755 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 6% of them. The median age here is 62.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Herbster CDP earn a median of $66,250 a year, 15.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 10% below 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 12.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Herbster CDP is valued at $342,900, 13% above the national figure and 62% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78.6% 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.

A median age of 62.3 puts Herbster CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 109 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Herbster CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Herbster CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
