McFarland village, WI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

McFarland village is a mid-size town in Wisconsin, with 9,230 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #103 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 40.9 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 McFarland village earn a median of $93,810 a year, 19.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% 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 2.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in McFarland village is valued at $363,400, 19.8% above the national figure and 71% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,447 a month, 2.9% above the national figure, or roughly $17,364 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.5% 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. 72% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
